ABOUT THE WORKING GROUP
Green growth is supported through legal and regulatory reforms that strengthen governance systems and human rights, encourage economic growth and equity, and promote the environmental rule of law. The GGKP Green Growth and the Law Working Group, which was active from 2015-2017, assessed knowledge and data gaps around environmental enforcement and compliance. The group's working paper, Environmental Rule of Law: An analysis of data availability (2019), identified key data gaps for assessing the environmental rule of law, particularly in developing countries. The working paper suggested new ways in which to enhance the availability of such data in order to strengthen the case for investing in environmental enforcement and compliance in countries worldwide.
