3. Goals

The network seeks to improve the state of the world by helping to solve a problem, develop new policies or new solutions, influence states and institutions, or otherwise contribute to economic and social development, human rights, sustainability, democracy, global cooperation and global governance.


4. Networking



Taxonomy of Multi- Stakeholder Networks

2.  Policy Networks

3.  Advocacy Networks

4.  Operational and Delivery Networks

5.  Convening Networks

6.  Watchdog Networks

7.  Platforms

8.  Political Action Networks

9.  Governance Networks


1. Knowledge Networks

The primary function of Knowledge Networks are to develop new thinking, research, ideas and policies that can be helpful in solving global problems. Their emphasis is on the creation of new ideas not their advocacy.


1.  Knowledge Networks

9. Governance Networks

These are multi-stakeholder networks who have achieved or been granted the right and responsibility of non-institutional global governance. They are different from “government networks” as described by Anne-Marie Slughter (non-state networks of government representatives addressing a global problem) to include non-government players.


9. Governance Networks

Issues Regarding Multi-Stakeholder Networks

1.  Legitimacy

2.  Accountability

3.  Representation

4.  Relationship to Existing Institutions


Achieving Legitimacy for the New Models

1.  Clear definition of the mission.

2.  Structure processes to ensure the network operates within the mission.

3.  Results and measurement of the results.

4.  Transparency.

5.  Clear representation process for decision making.

6.  Personal gain, compensation for leaders, and conflict of interest.


Implications for State Based Institutions


NEW: Models of Citizen Engagement

40,000 people around the world

engage in a 72-hour deliberation

around urban sustainability

issues, producing hundreds of

recommendations

NEW: A Second Wave of Democracy

If the first wave of democracy established elected and accountable institution of governance, but with a weak public mandate and an inert citizenry …

… the second wave will be characterized by strong representation and a new culture of public deliberation built on active citizenship.


The stakes are high for the global economy.

Paradigm shifts involve dislocation, conflict, confusion, uncertainty. New paradigms are nearly always received with coolness, even mockery or hostility. Those with vested

interests fight the change. The shift demands such a different

view of things that established leaders are often last to be won over, if at all.
