Plural of coagency; multiple instances of joint action or shared responsibility between parties.
From co- + agencies (from Latin agentia, acting or performing). The concept evolved in legal and organizational contexts to describe shared authority.
In modern diplomacy, coagencies between countries are everywhere—from joint space missions to treaty enforcement—yet the word itself is rarely used, replaced by 'partnerships.'
