ABSTRACT

This paper aims to explore the characteristics of talent demand for social governance in border areas and the construction of a collaborative cultivation mechanism through a literature review. Based on the particularities and challenges of social governance in border regions, the study analyzes the diverse, professional, and regional characteristics of the demand for social governance talent. By reviewing social theory and collaborative governance theory, this paper proposes practical pathways involving the cultivation of social capital and the co-construction, co-governance, and sharing by multiple stakeholders. The goal is to provide a theoretical basis and practical guidance for the collaborative cultivation of social governance talent in border areas. The research finds that constructing an effective collaborative cultivation mechanism is of significant importance for enhancing the level of social governance in border regions.
