ENGOs’ Bitter Pill: Adapting to Incremental Climate (Governance) Change

Published By: S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies | Published Date: January, 01 , 2012

Environmental non-governmental organisations (ENGOs) have often been depicted as a section of civil society that is highly critical of the lack of political will in addressing environmental issues. This was again evident during the proceedings of the 17th Conference of the Parties (COP17) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Durban in December 2011. This NTS Alert will, however, discuss the limitations faced by ENGOs in influencing the UNFCCC process, as well as suggest options that ENGOs ought to consider in effecting change within and beyond the UNFCCC process.
