Collaboration has taken centre stage in addressing complex environmental issues and yet several voids are evident in our understanding of it. A systematic mapping review was conducted to synthesize knowledge about the inner workings of collaboration (qualities, outcomes, and their relationship(s)) in environmental management and governance scholarship. Eighty-five scholarly works were included in the review and the analysis revealed 27 qualities, 20 outcomes, and 104 relationships. The frequency and magnitude of each were established through multiple rounds of coding, surfacing their relative prominence in the literature. Collaborative qualities with the greatest prominence included trust building, social learning, dialogue, and active involvement; the most prominent outcomes included social learning and social capital. Descriptive analyses illuminated myriad relationships among collaborative qualities to achieve outcomes, and emphasized the role of collaborative qualities of lesser scholarly attention on achieving outcomes. Findings offer insight for individuals engaging in collaboration and for future work aiming to further explore collaboration.

环境管理和治理协作的内部运作：系统映射审查

协作已成为解决复杂环境问题的中心舞台，但我们对它的理解仍存在一些空白。进行了系统的绘图审查，以综合有关环境管理和治理奖学金中合作的内部运作（质量、结果及其关系）的知识。85 篇学术著作被纳入审查，分析揭示了 27 项品质、20 项成果和 104 项关系。每个的频率和幅度是通过多轮编码建立的，在文献中显示出它们的相对突出地位。最突出的合作品质包括建立信任、社会学习、对话和积极参与；最突出的成果包括社会学习和社会资本。描述性分析阐明了实现成果的协作品质之间的无数关系，并强调了学术关注较少的协作品质对实现成果的作用。调查结果为参与协作的个人以及旨在进一步探索协作的未来工作提供了见解。
