This research introduces the Nature-Oriented Governance (NOG) model as a response to the complex socio-environmental challenges, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and unsustainable natural resource management, alongside the resilience of social systems in facing these challenges. The research methodology is based on qualitative content analysis, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), and the Likert scale, conducted through an evolutionary and participatory process. The theoretical concepts of this model are grounded in principles that emphasize the integration of various sciences and focus on human-nature interactions, contributing to its adaptability in different contexts. The primary objective of this research is to introduce the conceptual and analytical framework of the NOG model, which includes a dynamic system connecting governance components and developing indicators and variables that, while operationalizing this model, enable its evaluation and analysis in various conditions. This model allows stakeholders to actively participate in decision-making processes and provide feedback. One of the key tools in this framework is Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), which leverage natural processes to accelerate and operationalize governance changes. The research findings indicate that the NOG model functions as a practical and flexible framework for sustainable governance and aligning human development with environmental requirements. This model can be employed in various regions of the country as a practical strategy for sustainable natural resource management and enhancing the resilience of social systems towards social, economic, and environmental sustainability. The innovation of this model lies in its ability to link social and natural systems in a transformative and gradual pathway within the governance paradigm.
