Abstract:
 
The ?collaborative turn? in environmental policy has been a major theme in
the United States over the past two decades.  Collaboration and stakeholder
participation are seen as important ways to address environmental issues,
such as water pollution, that cross existing government boundaries.  Along
with changes in policy and management have come research studies focusing on
these phenomena.  This presentation discusses the evolution of social
science research on collaborative watershed management (CWM) in the U.S.  It
also presents some initial findings from a current research study of
collaborative watershed planning under the E.U. Water Framework Directive in
Germany.

About the presenter:
 
Tomas Koontz is Associate Professor of Environmental and Natural Resources
Policy at Ohio State University.  With his Environmental Social Sciences
colleagues in the School of Environment and Natural Resources, he
investigates human behaviors, communities, and institutions linked to the
environment. Following his doctoral studies at Indiana University, where he
studied common-pool resources and forest institutions under the direction of
Elinor Ostrom, he has conducted research on collaborative environmental
management and U.S. environmental policy.  Currently, Prof. Koontz is a
visiting scholar at Leuphana University in Lueneburg, Germany, with the
Governance and Sustainability group at the Institute for Environmental and
Sustainability Communication.
