In this era, the heavy burden of civilization is a narrative about relations between humans and nature especially in the context of environmental problems. Cross-cutting issues such as environmental policy, disaster risk reduction, sustainable development and the global food crisis have emerged and need to be addressed quickly. In order to benefit from opportunities and to manage the threats, understanding and cooperation between actors whether on international, national or local levels are required to deal with these cross-cutting issues.

The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at International Conference on Enviromental Governance (ICONEG 2018), but we are also inviting other experts to submit articles for this call.
