Non-state Actor Influence

Non-State Actor Influence is a theoretical construct in climate governance that denotes the causal impact of non-state entities—such as corporations, cities, NGOs, and transnational networks—on climate negotiations, distinguishing it from state-centric diplomatic dynamics by emphasizing decentralized, non-sovereign forms of policy shaping, agenda setting, and norm diffusion within global environmental regimes.
