Beyond Promises: Delivering on Plastics Commitments, Leadership from the Middle-Out
On November 26, 2024, during INC-5 negotiations on the plastics treaty, we co-hosted a side event, “Beyond Promises: Delivering on Plastics Commitments, Leadership from the Middle-Out,” in collaboration with CDP – a non-profit working on environmental corporate disclosure – on the role of subnational actors and the importance of middle-out leadership in environmental multilateralism. The panel discussion underscored the need for science-driven policy, the importance of fostering multi-stakeholder relationships, and the critical task of mobilizing financial flows to support effective action.

Our Work
The Global Environmental Governance (GEG) Project is a global network of scholars working to produce and disseminate research at the intersection of science, policy, and society to inform and advance environmental governance at various levels, from local to international. Building on this foundation, we seek to bridge the gaps between research, policy, and practice by fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and dialogue across disciplines. By engaging academics, policymakers, and communities, the GEG Project aims to address complex environmental challenges, support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals, and strengthen the implementation of multilateral environmental agreements.
