Public participation, land use and climate change governance in Thailand

Land Use Policy, 2016, vol. 52, issue C, 511-517

Abstract: Environmental governance in the context of climate change and land use is examined with the aim of specifying the conditions under which the incorporation of effective public participation in the governance process can be achieved. This is done through an examination of the preferences of the actors involved, an analysis of the land use issues in climate change governance in Thailand, the extant institutional arrangements for public participation, the difficulties of implementing effective public participation, and possible ways of mitigating these challenges. As climate change governance is a highly problematic arena, successful incorporation of public participation in this sector could point to the potential of extending these conditions into other sectors of environmental governance.
