Introduction: Current pattern of governance, on global, regional and domestic levels, are facing challenges. The globalization of markets and the growth of transnational networks affect the ways of global and regional decision-making. This research program focuses on the search for new patterns of regional and global governance, taking into account a variety of actors, from states and international institutions to non-governmental organizations and civil society actors. Decisions made at the regional and global level as regards collaboration and collective action in areas such as energy and climate governance, combating root causes of conflict and poverty, trade policies and economic stability. In this thematic area, projects focus on changing patterns of decision-making at the regional and global levels in a variety of policy areas, including environmental protection, migration policies, trade, energy governance and measures to improve core conditions for peace and stability. It explores how, in changing circumstances, globally and regionally, effective and legitimate patterns of governance can be achieved and implemented. The global governance of peace-building faces several challenges. One, peace-building in practice does not necessarily privilege peace. Its critical practitioners—UN agencies and states with large foreign aid programs—implicitly assume that the capacities and norms they support will sustain peace; instead, there are real tensions between peace and justice. Two, because peace-building aims to promote a rights-respecting state or government, peace-building activities are sometimes constrained by the tar-get state itself. Three, peace-building efforts fail to fully harness non national actors and processes. To increase the effectiveness of peace-building, the primary global governors of peace-building need to develop ways to sustain disparate small-scale indigenous efforts to build peace even when the state opposes such support. However, even with global governors adopting this approach, the state could continue to play a spoiler role and local efforts could also be inconsistent with the normative agenda embedded in peace-building constructs.

Objective of Study: •	to systematically identify and evaluate patterns of decision-making and public goods provision at different levels of governance; •	to offer policy advice on best practices at different levels of governance, contributing to the achievement of the goals of the United Nations; •	to explore and assess themes likely to be core to global governance in the future; •	to investigate how current regional and global institutions can best adapt to shifts in the current global order and the degree of variance in regional and global governance.

Project Plan: Problem statement Literature review Research design Finding the model of governance Report writing Incorporating modifications Final report writing

Methodology: The research will be based on both primary and secondary data. There will be two or more case studies to support our study and its findings. The analysis will be done by spss and content analysis. The analysis will establish the requirement of a cohesive link between the regional and global governance. Expected outcome: There will be new areas based upon our findings, which will enables us for establishing global peace by governance. It will explore new areas of research for further study. The study will help us in finding weak points and at the same time suggestions and recommendations for improving this. It will harness a new support base for establishing global peace through good governance. UNU-CRIS is the optimal place to pursue such a project as we will able to interact with the respondents in a broad prospective. We will have the access to variables and our requirement of data. Our research will contribute at a macro prospective for world organizations. The assimilation of various stakeholders will be easier to analyze and correlate.
