Global governance is multi-faceted as it prepares professionals to address complex global challenges through comprehensive knowledge of different governance types including private companies, NGOs, and government offices. It also requires understanding of international organizations like the UN Security Council, which works to maintain peace, and the General Assembly, where member states can find consensus on issues. Global governance further involves understanding how international affairs are managed in the absence of a global government, through cooperation between states and organizations like the World Trade Organization.

1.) Why global governance is multi-faceted?
As a Global Governance student, the simplest answer would be that
Global Governance teaches how to deal with all kind of governance types. Whether it is a private company, an NGO or a government office, you will need to have comprehensive knowledge if you are aiming to be a governor. Global Governance aims to prepare professionals to face global challenges that require specific legal and economic competencies, as well as a wide range of technical knowledge and skills to manage cultural mediations. This is why global governance is multi-faceted. Security Council The Security Council takes the lead in determining the existence of a threat to the peace or an act of aggression. It calls upon the parties to a dispute to settle it by peaceful means and recommends methods of adjustment or terms of settlement. Under Chapter VII of the Charter, the Security Council can take enforcement measures to maintain or restore international peace and security. Such measures range from economic sanctions to international military action. The Council also establishes UN Peacekeeping Operations and Special Political Missions. General Assembly The General Assembly is the main deliberative, policymaking and representative organ of the UN. Through regular meetings, the General Assembly provides a forum for Member States to express their views to the entire membership and find consensus on difficult issues. It makes recommendations in the form of General Assembly Resolutions. Decisions on important questions, such as those on peace and security, admission of new members and budgetary matters, require a two-thirds majority, but other questions are decided by simple majority. An international organization (also called intergovernmental organization) is an w:organization of international scope or character. There are two main types of international organizations: international intergovernmental organizations, whose members are sovereign states; and w:non-governmental organizations (NGOs), which are private organizations. Generally the term international organization is used to mean international governmental organizations only. On Governance unpacks the complex global dimensions of governance, and proposes a new theory premised on the belief that strengthened, innovative national and global governance enables positive outcomes for people everywhere. Global governance is understood as “…the way in which global affairs are managed. As there is no global government, global governance typically involves a range of actors including states, as well as regional and international organizations. However, a single organization may nominally be given the lead role on an issue, for example the World Trade Organization in world trade affairs. Thus global governance is thought to be an international process of consensus-forming which generates guidelines and agreements that affect national governments and international corporations. Examples of such consensus would include WHO policies on health issues” (WHO, 2015).
