EU Affairs & Governance
Why do we work on general EU affairs and governance?
Every day, the EU makes decisions that affect our natural world. Many policy debates and issues may seem unrelated to the fight against the climate crisis and nature loss at first glance, but they can significantly impact these areas.
'Governance' refers to the process of making policy choices, determining who makes these choices, how they are implemented, and who is held accountable. While this may sound technical, it is vital to ensure that all EU policies consider their environmental impacts. Without this, the EU's goals of reversing nature loss and limiting global warming to 1.5°C cannot be achieved.
WWF is working in various ways to promote good governance in EU decision-making:
