Resource description:

Governance of ecosystem services (ES) and natural capital (NC) is one of the four major challenges addressed by OpenNESS. The term governance indicates a mode of steering that differs from state-centred top-down command-and-control approaches, as it is marked by the inclusion of a variety of actors or stakeholders beyond the state, but does not necessarily exclude any involvement of actors representing the state.
