Why Transitions Research?
We are on the precipice of immense change, challenge and opportunity. Human activity has come to dominate and seriously compromise the stability of the Earth’s systems in the Anthropocene. The interactions between the natural world, society and the ‘technosphere’ are complex and unpredictable. New forms of knowledge and partnerships are urgently needed to understand the co-evolution of technology, society and sustainability.
We conduct multidisciplinary research to generate anticipatory knowledge on the complex interplay between technology, society and sustainability in transition processes. We bridge the gap between new knowledge, public policy and societal action.
OUR WORK AIMS TO
Shape Narratives
Shifting the discourse to spark new conversations and promote just and sustainable transitions.
Influence Policy
Sharing anticipatory insights with state and city level policy makers to positively impact policy.
Enable Action
Generating actionable solutions and recommendations so local decision makers can take informed decisions.
Fill Knowledge Gaps
Providing civil society organisations with resources and information to support them in action.
Engage Citizens
Empowering communities with resources and tools to enable participation in development decisions.
