- Scaling and
Governance Conference 2010 (10
- 12 Nov. 2010) Hof van Wageningen, Wageningen, The

Policies have many impacts on environmental and human processes at
different spatial and temporal scales. Climate change, biodiversity,
energy consumption, water resource management, and food security are
a few of the many examples illustrating the complex multi-scale
interactions within and between environmental and human processes.
This observation fits well within a long history of disappointments
in policy and management related to our environment and indicates
that scale sensitive governance approaches are required. For more information please click
