Environmental Governance in The Division of Roles International Institutions and Government Institutions in African Countries Mariette Tsitohery 1. Colette Zafimahova 1 1Catholic University of Madagascar Antananarivo. Madagascar *Corresponding Author: Mariette Tsitohery Abstract. The study is aims to assess the division of roles between international and government institutions in promoting sustainable development in the region. The research employs a mixedmethods approach, including a survey of experts, a review of existing literature, and an analysis of case studies, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the current state of environmental governance in African countries. The findings of the study suggest that the division of roles between international and government institutions is a complex and dynamic process that is shaped by a variety of factors, including the level of economic development, the political context, and the capacities of different actors. The current state of environmental governance in African countries is influenced by a range of challenges, including limited resources, weak institutions, and a lack of political will to prioritize environmental protection. However, the study also identifies a number of opportunities for improving environmental governance in the region. These include greater collaboration between international and government institutions, the development of more effective policies and initiatives, and increased investment in environmental protection and sustainable development. Overall, the research highlights the importance of taking a comprehensive and integrated approach to environmental governance in African countries, and underscores the need for continued efforts to balance economic growth and environmental protection in the region. The study provides valuable insights for policy makers, international institutions, and government institutions, and will inform future efforts to promote sustainable development in Africa.

The issue of environmental governance has become increasingly relevant in recent years particularly in African countries where the consequences of environmental degradation are acutely felt. This article examines the division of roles between international institutions and government institutions in addressing environmental issues in African countries (Gerged, 2. It aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and opportunities present in the current system of environmental governance in Africa and to offer recommendations for improvement (Ajibade et al. , 2. The article will analyze the strengths and limitations of the current system, and suggest ways in which the division of roles between international and government institutions can be optimized to better serve the interests of African countries (NdungAou & Signe, 2. According to Abbott & Snidal . Will explore the role of international institutions such as the United Nations and international environmental agreements in environmental Copyright A 2022.

According to Danish & Wang . Examine the relationship between economic development and environmental governance in African countries. The pursuit of economic growth in many African countries has often come at the expense of the environment, leading to widespread environmental degradation. The article will explore the challenges and opportunities for balancing economic development and environmental protection, and will provide recommendations for how international and government institutions can better align their efforts to support sustainable development in Africa (Haywood et al. , 2. Another aspect of environmental governance to be addressed in the article is the role of civil society and community-based organizations in environmental governance in African countries (Kyessi. These organizations play a critical role in raising awareness about environmental issues, advocating for change, and holding government and international institutions accountable. Will examine the challenges and opportunities for these organizations to participate effectively in environmental governance and will suggest ways in which they can be better supported (Bennet et al. , 2. Comprehensive analysis of the current state of environmental governance in African countries and will offer recommendations for improvement (Ferronato et al. , 2.
