Workshop: Environmental Governance

环境治理需要人民及其地方、州和国家政府的参与，各项决定对各管辖区都有影响。 社会科学、自然科学和物理科学等多个学科之间的合作对于我们了解如何根据最佳科学证据做出决策是必要的。 然而，尽管环境系统是跨学科的兴趣，并需要从多个科学分析，科学家往往没有合作的地方，关于如何最好地研究问题，人们如何构成，互动和管理他们的行为在复杂的环境系统。 该项目支持一个研讨会，该研讨会将发展关于人民参与治理环境系统的选择的跨科学合作，解决政府各级的治理选择和框架。 与会者将包括来自多个学科的工程师、社会科学家以及自然和物理科学家，他们的研究重点都是管理环境系统。 该研讨会将开发共同的合作和框架，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，该项目更广泛的影响将包括促进政府的决策，并在有关科学合作和环境科学的问题上培训学生。

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.
