Governance Reform and Policy Process Management for Sustainability

向可持续社会的过渡需要在能源、农业、粮食和保健等各个政策领域进行治理改革。该项目从过渡治理的角度探索了实现这些改革的政策流程管理方式。我们通过对国内和国际政策问题的个案研究，重点探讨不同政策范畴内各种因素之间的相互关系，这些问题需要与前者保持一致的安排。还审查了法律和沟通方案在过渡时期治理中的作用。问题结构、利益相关者分析和技术评估等实用和制度性工具都被实验性地实施，然后进行评估。所有这些工具都有望支持政策流程管理。

Transition to the sustainable society requires governance reforms in the various policy fields such as energy, agriculture and food and health care. This project, with the transition governance perspective, explored the way of policy process management which enabled these reforms. We focused on the inter-relations between various factors in different policy areas through the case studies of domestic as well as international policy issues which require consistent arrangements with the former. The roles of laws and communication schemes in transition governance were also examined. Practical and institutional instruments such as problem structuring, stakeholder analysis and technology assessment, all of which were expected to support policy process management were experimentally implemented and then evaluated.
