Who we are
We are the international network of scholars interested in sustainability transitions, advancing transition scholarship through a program of knowledge building, education, exchange and outreach.

Sustainability transitions are major shifts in established industries, socio-technical systems, and societies toward more sustainable modes of production and consumption.
