Conclusions on Policy Effectiveness

This chapter presents a set of conclusions for Part B of the
sixth Global Environment Outlook (GEO-6), reached through the
findings of the previous chapters about policy effectiveness
(Chapters 10-17). It summarizes for policymakers what
is known to work best and why, including a synthesized
discussion of the limitations of the evidence available to date
for policy effectiveness. We also make reference to Part C
(Outlooks), which will examine the promising emerging policies
for the future.
