Welcome
The School of Government provides research, consulting, teaching, and facilitation to improve environmental governance in North Carolina. Environmental governance includes the efforts of institutions to manage the environmental resources they oversee and to address the impact of their own operations on the environment. State and local government, the federal government, regional planning organizations, nonprofits, other academic institutions, the media, and private firms all play an important role in the complex web of laws and relationships that affect the state’s environment. The School of Government often serves as a convener, facilitator, and neutral mediator between two or more of these players.
The School is home to the UNC Environmental Finance Center, which is dedicated to enhancing the ability of governments to provide environmental services in fair, effective, and sustainable ways. The Environmental Finance Center provides a bridge between students and faculty at UNC-Chapel Hill who work principally on environmental financing, management and planning tools, and the governments whose job it is to use these tools for the public interest.
