What is environmental governance?
Environmental governance means rules, processes
and behaviour that affect the way powers are exercised at European level in
the field of environmental policies, particularly as regards openness, participation,
accountability, effectiveness and coherence.
Following the adoption by the Commission of a
White Paper on European Governance on 25 July 2001, the promotion of new forms
of governance is one of the Commission's strategic priorities.
