Transformations to Sustainability

Transformations to Sustainability (T2S) is a research programme that holds at its core the conviction that environmental and social sustainability will never be achieved without profound, even difficult, changes to our societies. By supporting an innovative, solution-oriented approach to sustainability research, the T2S programme works to better understand the complex social transformations needed to address problems of global environmental change, as well as on interrelated societal problems such as poverty, corruption, migration, social discontent and conflict.
