At the heart of our research lies the Governance Case Method — an innovative approach to analyzing real-world governance challenges through comparative, evidence-based case studies. This method allows us to systematically capture and assess diverse governance models and their practical applications in sustainability transitions. By integrating perspectives from multiple disciplines and stakeholders, we develop comprehensive frameworks that address social, economic, and environmental complexities.The Governance Case Method not only supports academic research but also directly informs policy and practice by offering decision-makers practical tools to analyze governance scenarios and develop inclusive, context-specific strategies. Our Governance Case Canvas and database are continuously updated with insights from ongoing projects and collaborations, making them valuable resources for both researchers and practitioners.
