Abstract

In July 2007, the French government launched a democratic debate on environmental issues, known as Grenelle Environment Project. The objective of this Project is to define the strategic and key points of government policy on ecological and sustainable development issues in a participative process at the national level. Within this approach, the Grenelle Environment Project put all the citizen and public service representatives together around a discussion table to set deliberately efficient national measures to deal with the environmental problems. These measures have been concretized through three national Acts, which are then legitimated by social, economic and politic actors and stakeholders. The objective of this chapter is to describe the different stages of Grenelle Environmental Project till today, and to illustrate the benefits of a collaborative and participative decision-making process to support institutional actors to face environmental, ecological and sustainable development questions. In describing the Project we will mainly focus on climate change and energy management issues.
