Conference on
Governance of Natural Resources
in a Multi-Level Context
20 - 22 January 2010, Leipzig, Germany
GoverNat invites the research community, administrators and NGO representatives to present own approaches and experiences and to discuss the project's results in natural resource governance in an attempt to bridge the present distance between abstract theoretical formulations and specific but isolated case descriptions.
