ENVIRONMENTAL GOVERNANCE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES – CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
DR. G. G. PARKHE
Abstract:
Environmental governance in developing countries is a critical issue that affects
sustainable development. This study examines the challenges and opportunities for
environmental governance in developing countries, with a focus on sustainable development. A
mixed-methods research approach was employed, using a combination of surveys, interviews,
and case studies. The findings suggest that developing countries face significant challenges in
environmental governance, including limited institutional capacity, inadequate funding, and lack
of public awareness. However, there are also opportunities for improvement, including the
adoption of new technologies, international cooperation, and community-based initiatives. The
study recommends that developing countries should prioritize environmental governance and
adopt a holistic approach to sustainable development.
