Workshop: Environmental Governance

环境治理需要人民及其地方、州和国家政府的参与，而决策具有跨司法管辖区的影响。社会科学、自然科学和自然科学的多学科合作对于我们理解如何根据最好的科学证据作出决定是必要的。然而，尽管环境系统涉及多个科学领域，并需要多门科学的分析，但科学家们往往没有就如何最好地研究人们如何在复杂的环境系统中构成、相互作用和管理他们的行为的问题进行合作。该项目支持一个研讨会，该研讨会将在人们参与治理环境系统的选择方面开展跨科学的合作，处理不同政府级别的治理选择和框架。参与者将包括来自多个学科的工程师、社会科学家、自然和物理学家，所有这些科学家都有关于治理环境系统的研究优先事项。研讨会将制定共同的协作和框架，以了解如何解释治理战略的变化。在这样做的过程中，它将有助于跨科学概念的发展。此外，该项目的更广泛影响将包括为政府制定政策做出贡献，以及在科学合作和环境科学方面对学生进行培训。

Environmental governance requires participation by people and their local, state and national governments, and decisions have implications across jurisdictions. Cooperation across multiple disciplines from the social and natural and physical sciences is necessary to inform our understanding of how to make decisions based in the best scientific evidence. Yet although environmental systems are of interest across the sciences, and require analysis from multiple sciences, scientists often do not have the collaborations in place concerning how best to research questions of how people constitute, interact with and govern their behavior within complex environmental systems. This project supports a workshop that will develop collaborations across sciences concerning people's participation in choices about governing environmental systems, addressing governing choices and frameworks across scales of governments. Participants will include engineers, social scientists, and natural and physical scientists from multiple disciplines, all with research priorities concerning governing environmental systems. The workshop will develop collaborations and frameworks in common for understanding how to explain variation in governing strategies. In doing so, it will contribute to the development of concepts across the sciences. In addition, the project's broader impacts will include contributing to policymaking for governments, and training students in issues concerning scientific collaboration as well as environmental sciences.
