Climate change, environmental degradation and resource pressures have reached unprecedented levels worldwide. Achieving sustainability will depend on rapid and fundamental transformations in the ways we organize our societies and interact with the natural environment.

The International Science Council has today launched seven films resulting from the Transformations to Sustainability programme. The films present insights from the Transformations to Sustainability projects, looking at how social transformations to sustainability can be supported. They share how projects have worked with communities in diverse places around the world to understand the complex relations between social structures, the material world and environmental and social change.

Watch the summary film above, and explore the multi-media website which includes six further films from individual projects at https://stories.council.science/transformations-sustainability/.
