dc.description.abstract | Sustainability science suggests a core set of factors that foster significant change in
governance, with leaders and entrepreneurs often identified as the main instigators.
Discussions of leadership in governance transformations often focus on key charismatic
people; underplaying contestation and the complex landscape of leadership. We present
an empirical study that uses a participatory network mapping approach to provide a
broader examination of leadership in integrated conservation and development. We use
the Coral Triangle Initiative in Solomon Islands as an example of potential
transformation in environmental governance across multiple objectives. Our analysis
shows that actants, other than key individuals, enact leadership. We illustrate that a
different suite of actants are providing leadership for each of the three Coral Triangle
Initiative objectives. Actants can enact leadership by positively and negatively
influencing different goals to varying extents. Our study illustrates the potential of
broader and more nuanced understandings of leadership in environmental governance. | en_GB |
