GOVERNANCE
Nowadays governance is often associated with the govern of a State; however, in our age of accelerations and age of change it covers much more than that. As our world is in a constant stance of change, our approach to governance of states, non-state actors, and international organizations matters more. Trends all around the world focusing even more and more to improve the quality of governance and institutions to increase the efficiency and achieve a better system of things. United Nations along with the democratic nations, focusing developing e-governance, improving social dialogue, struggle against corruption, increasing the human rights and human rights in business even more as the governance now represent them as well. Therefore, corporate governance also becomes an essential part of any business in the international or national market. This ensures to facilitate effective, entrepreneurial, and prudent management that can deliver the long-term success.
With the increasing usage of AI and expansion of the internet, many of the governance activities move on to the internet world. It will have utmost importance for years to come.
Democracies increasingly become more representative, and definition of perfect democracy is in debate in democratic countries. To achieve better democracy, social dialogue between social groups and state actors is necessary. For a better world and governance system, therefore, a solid social dialogue environment is a necessary component.
Corruption decreases the efficiency of governance and poisons society as well as the state. Tackling corruption is an important goal of democratic countries and international organizations. As our democracies are becoming more representative, tackling corruption has a unique place among them to have a healthy democracy and society.
Although human rights are designed as fundamental rights in UN Charter, many underdeveloped and developing countries still lack the basic human rights such as right to believe, access to health and equality and so on. Regardless, it is one of the most important components in UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and focusing on improving human rights is quite important for humanity to achieve.
Despite the abolishment of slavery and betterment of the working conditions throughout the decades, many in the world still work in bad conditions, in low salary and experience workplace abuses. Therefore, focusing on improving and protecting human rights in business places has utmost importance for the good of the world.
Another important topic within the Governance is the governance of corporates. Some corporates in the world are bigger, wealthier, and influential then some states which creates many areas of social responsibility intervention for them. This reality puts governance into a different perspective. Rather than understanding governance solely with the State, one needs to work on the governance of corporates as well. Conducting improvements on corporate management system as well as providing technical and legal consultancy to corporates will be increasingly important topics in the future.
