Formalised knowledge systems, including universities and research institutes, are important for contemporary societies. They are, however, also arguably failing humanity when their impact is measured against the level of progress being made in stimulating societal changes needed to address challenges like climate change. In this we used a novel futures-oriented participatory approach that asked what future envisioned systems might need look how get there. Findings suggest will be much more...
Co-production, the collaborative weaving of research and practice by diverse societal actors, is argued to play an important role in sustainability transformations. Yet, there still poor understanding how navigate tensions that emerge these processes. Through analyzing 32 initiatives worldwide co-produced knowledge action foster sustainable social-ecological relations, we conceptualize ‘co-productive agility’ as emergent feature vital for turning into Co-productive agility refers willingness...
Abstract Creating a just and sustainable planet will require not only small changes, but also systemic transformations in how humans relate to the each other, i.e., social–ecological transformations. We suggest there is need for collaborative environments where experimentation with new configurations of systems can occur, we refer these as transformative spaces. In this paper, seek better understanding design enable creation spaces development context. analyse nine case studies from previous...

In response to the climate and biodiversity crisis, number of transdisciplinary research projects in which researchers partner with sustainability initiatives foster transformative change is increasing globally. To enable catalyze substantial change, (TTDR) urgently needed provide knowledge guidance for actions. We review prominent discussions on TTDR draw our experiences from Global South North. Drawing this, we identify key gaps stimulate debate how can by advancing five priority areas:...
Realising the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will require transformative changes at micro, meso and macro levels across diverse geographies. Collaborative, transdisciplinary research has a role to play in documenting, understanding contributing such transformations. Previous work investigated of this Europe North America, however dynamics on ‘transformations sustainability’ other parts world are less well-understood. This paper reports an international project that involved six...
Purpose The authors describe the challenges and opportunities associated with developing an interdisciplinary sustainability programme in emerging economy illustrate how these are addressed through approach taken for development of first postgraduate (MSc PhD) science at National Autonomous University Mexico (UNAM). purpose this paper is to outline that has a potential application other parts Latin America perhaps more broadly world regions sharing some same as found Mexico....
In the last few years, there has been an interest in understanding impact of environmental change and degradation on people's affective life. This issue become particularly pressing for populations whose form life is heavily dependent ecosystem services functions opportunities adaptation are limited. Based our work with farmers from Xochimilco urban wetland southwest Mexico City, we begin to draw a theoretical approach address explain how impacts sense agency. Farmers who were part project...
Envisioning trajectories towards sustainability encompasses enacting significant changes in multiple spheres (i.e., infrastructure, policy, practices, behaviors). These unfold within the intricate landscapes of wicked problems, where diverse perspectives and potential solutions intersect often clash. Advancing more equitable sustainable demands recognition collaboration with voices to uncover meaningful synergies among groups striving catalyze substantial change. Projects this nature...
Here we addressed through a practical case the problem of dealing with both uncertainty in pairwise comparisons and compatibility amongst alternative AHP representations.Our approach was implemented for integrating portfolio projects to be presented by Mexico Global Environmental Facility (GEF).Results showed importance considering uncertainty/compatibility implementation aiming integrate multiple viewpoints from representatives international institutions, civil society organizations, public...
