This introductory chapter provides a broad context for considering the ecosystem governance issues discussed in subsequent chapters. In an increasingly interconnected world, nations cannot alone solve many of the pressing social and environmental challenges. Establishing effective governance systems is gradually becoming recognised as fundamental to sustainable development although it remains a mystery to many. To provide some clarity to this esoteric subject this chapter examines what governance is, the various forms it can take, why more effective global governance is important, and some basic principles that underpin it.
