Adaptive Governance. The City’s practices, policies and structure will better reflect communities when we can acknowledge that we do not all share – and yet we can collectively benefit from – each other’s views.

It links private property rights with public policy obligations, recognizing the importance of both in the grandest of public-private partnerships. The Moon Treaty itself acknowledges that such adaptive governance is necessary:
