It is with a warm welcome that we invite you to this online panel:

What are the inhibitors to effective governance? How – and why – do some of society’s most intractable problems resist or evade governance solutions? In this panel discussion, University of Sydney experts on climate governance, Indigenous governance, financial governance, and internet governance explore the thorny question of governance challenges and challenges posed to governance systems by complex social problems. We also examine the limitations of contemporary governance thinking, and explore the possibility of alternative ways of engaging with governance systems and processes to increase social and political wellbeing.
