| Abstract | This publication highlights the present and future challenges facing the international institutional system and pinpoints the shortcomings in existing arrangements. The author recommends reforms in monitoring and assessment, environmental management, integrated planning for sustainable development, and building national capacities in all these areas. This study emphasizes the need for performance reviews in all countries and international agencies to increase accountability, to inform ongoing reform within the U.N. system, and to achieve more effective global environmental governance in general. |
