GOGREEN Research Project

The GOGREEN project challenges the presumption that governments are better suited than users, citizens, private firms, and civil society organizations to generate green solutions that protect our climate, natural resources, and biodiversity. Therefore, the focus is on the strength of local partnerships, the constellation of governance factors, and the importance of local arenas for co-creation to create change. To examine this, GOGREEN employs an innovative research strategy that invites local teams from 28 different countries to contribute with a total of 36 case studies of local co-creation of green transitions. Based on this research it will provide a solid foundation for improving the governance of green transitions, complementing technical knowledge about how to build a sustainable future.
