Over fifty years of global conservation has failed to bend the
curve of biodiversity loss, so we need to transform the ways we
govern biodiversity. The UN Convention on Biological Diversity aims
to develop and implement a transformative framework for the coming
decades. However, the question of what transformative biodiversity
governance entails and how it can be implemented is complex. This
book argues that transformative biodiversity governance means
prioritizing ecocentric, compassionate and just sustainable
development. This involves implementing five governance approaches
- integrative, inclusive, adaptive, transdisciplinary and
anticipatory governance - in conjunction and focused on the
underlying causes of biodiversity loss and unsustainability.
Transforming Biodiversity Governance is an invaluable source for
academics, policy makers and practitioners working in biodiversity
and sustainability governance. This is one of a series of
publications associated with the Earth System Governance Project.
