SUMMARY:PhD Defense Daniel Petrovics
DESCRIPTION:Researcher Daniel Petrovics will defend his thesis\, titled ‘Rising Together: Polycentric Governance\, Niche Expansion & the Scaling of Energy Communities‘. \n\n\n\nThis study explores how energy communities are revolutionizing Europe’s energy landscape by managing local renewable energy assets and expanding their services. These initiatives are pioneering collective action against the climate crisis at the local scale and promoting energy democracy at the same time. Daniel Petrovics dives into their success\, revealing conditions for scaling\, underlying mechanisms\, and diverse pathways they follow as they grow and expand their services. His research highlights the balance between deploying renewable energy and democratizing energy governance\, emphasizing the potential of cooperative resource management and community-driven solutions. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP form

SUMMARY:SEICA Open Seminar - Nicolas Jager (WUR)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the start of the new SEICA Open Seminar Talks with Dr. Nicolas Jager\, Assistant Professor for the governance of sustainability transformations with the Public Administration and Policy group at Wageningen University & Research.  \n\n\n\nDoes public participation improve environmental governance and foster collective action? What works\, when\, and how?Participation and collaboration of citizens and organized stakeholders in public decision-making is widely believed to improve environmental governance outputs and lead to enhanced collective action. However\, empirical evidence on the benefits of participatory governance is largely scattered across small-N case studies. To synthesize the available case-based evidence\, we conducted a broad case-based meta-analysis across 22 Western democracies\, including 305 individual cases of public environmental decision-making. Our analysis provides insights to the questions: How do ‘more’ participatory decision-making processes compare against ‘less’ participatory ones in fostering – or hindering – strong environmental governance outputs\, (i.e. environmental provisions in plans\, agreements or permits)? Which design features make a difference? What role does the decision-making context play? How do results change if we control for the intentions of the leading governmental agency? And how do participatory outputs lead to environmental collective action?  \n\n\n\nTo better familiarize yourself with his work\, Nicolas suggested reading “Does stakeholder participation improve environmental governance? Evidence from a meta-analysis of 305 case studies”. Find it here. \n\n\n\nThis seminar is online. If you would like to attend\, please send an e-mail to collective-action@rsm.nl and you will receive a Teams-invite shortly.
