Good governance is an ongoing challenge for sustainable development in today's world. The current paradigm of neoliberal restructuring has dominated development governance, often disregarding alternative methods. To address this gap, Governance Strategies for Effective Sustainable Development explores governance's multidimensional nature, offering insights into diverse perspectives on institutional roles in development and the underlying reasons for variations in governance mechanisms across countries. This work aims to provide a roadmap for creating effective, accountable, and transparent institutions, as outlined in SDG16, by examining the need for institutional changes at local, national, regional, and global levels. This book, tailored for academics, researchers, and students, plays a pivotal role as a critical resource for understanding and navigating the complexities of governance. With a focus on more than 100 universities in the UK and over 400 in India, this text aims to engage a wide audience, offering valuable insights into the principles of participatory decision-making and strengthening global governance. By delving into the core questions surrounding governance's purpose and its role in sustainable development, this book not only provides a platform for dialogue and action but also empowers its readers to address the challenges of our time. Through its interdisciplinary approach, this book seeks to inspire change and drive discussions on institutional reforms necessary for sustainable development. Examining the limitations of the current neoliberal framework and exploring alternative models offers a pathway toward building effective, accountable, and transparent institutions. Focusing on the broader implications of governance for all Sustainable Development Goals, this text serves as a beacon for those seeking to understand, challenge, and transform governance paradigms for a more sustainable future.
