Influencing major areas of societal activities has to take seriously the main characteristics - diversity, dynamics and the complexity of those activities and not regard these as avoidable side effects. Governance is a perspective which takes such traits as starting points. In particular, it stresses that there is a great need for more extensive and intensive interactions between all those involved in major societal issues such as the care for aquatic genetic resources; i.e., interactions between public and private partners, and between different levels, scales and modes of governance. Governance then means systematic interactions in problem solving and opportunity creation and the care for the institutional frameworks which are needed to enable those involved in these activities to carry them out in an appropriate manner. Examples are given to illustrates how this conceptualization may be used for the governance of aquatic genetic resources
