5.3. Attributes<br />
One of the key properties outlined in network theory is that actors tend to interact<br />
with similar others. Therefore, we consider the attributes identified below as<br />
potential drivers of connections.<br />
1. Typology of the institution (governmental, non-governmental,<br />
international organization, thematic network, educational institution)<br />
2. Salience of <strong>GCED</strong> to the organization on a scale from 1 to 5<br />
3. Scale of action of organizations activities (local, international, multiscalar)<br />
4. Importance attributed to <strong>GCED</strong><br />
5. Percentage of resources devoted to <strong>GCED</strong><br />
6. Different visions of <strong>GCED</strong>: conceptualization <strong>and</strong> goals of <strong>GCED</strong><br />
5.4. Building the dataset<br />
To identify the organizations that are part of the interview sample, we started<br />
from the list of organizations that participated in the Montreal exercise <strong>and</strong> the<br />
organizations they named (71 in total), but we excluded the ones that have the<br />
following characteristics (n= 32):<br />
• Universities that do not have a specific research centre, department, or<br />
programme on <strong>GCED</strong>: University of Bamberg, University of Newcastle,<br />
