Abstract

The twenty-first century is befuddled with various complex public problems that appear to render traditional approaches ineffective in resolution. The drastic nature of the complex public problems, especially the domino effects on the various sectors and segments of society, create a sense of urgency and resolve for collective stakeholders’ action. Collaborative governance emerges as one of such promising approaches that encourage cross-sector stakeholders’ representation and participation in decision-making or implementation with potential benefits to both target populations and society at large (Gray, 1989; Ansell & Gash, 2008; Agbodzakey, 2012; Bryson et al., 2015; Emerson et al., 2015; Johnston, 2011).
