5 Transforming Our World Transformation or transformability in social-ecological systems is defined as the capacity to create untried beginnings from which to evolve a fundamentally new way of living when existing ecological, economic, and social conditions make the current system untenable. Stockholm Resilience Centre 2012
6 Transforming Our World 1. If the changes envisioned by the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda are supposed to be transformational in quality, how do we work towards this quality? 1. If the transformations envisioned are supposed support sustainable development, what are the key leverage points to unlock unsustainable path dependencies?
7 1. The Sustainable Development Goals 2. The role of mindsets in transformation processes 3. The limits of the economic lens 4. A Great Mindshift for sustainability? 5. Transformative Literacy for strategic interventions 7

14 Where else do we detect this pattern? 14
15 Emergence of the System s Purpose Stark Utopia of the last Great Transformation 1. Now normal but has once been an innovation: nineteenth century civilization ( ) chose to base itself on a motive only rarely acknowledged as valid in the history of human societies, and certainly never before raised to the level of a justification of action and behavior in everyday life, namely gain. (Karl Polanyi, p.30) 1. The matrix of the self-regulating market : the control of the economic system by the market is of overwhelming consequence to the whole organization of society: it means no less than the running of society as an adjunct to the market. (Karl Polanyi, p.57) 15
16 What does the Stark Utopia tell us about reaching sustainable development? Source: Göpel, The Great Mindshift,
17 Assessing Economized Language What is Hiding behind Dematerialized Growth?
18 Assessing Economized Language What is Hiding behind Wealth and Productivity Gains?
19 Assessing Economized Language Growing Output Delivers Growing Wellbeing and Happiness?
20 Assessing Economized Language Forest as Substitutable Capital 20
21 Assessing Economized Language Can Wellbeing and Happiness at all Grow Forever? Easterlin Paradox: Income and Happiness Decouple More important: health, income security, relative rank in society, social relations, OECD report How s Life?
22 Assessing Economized Language Homo Economicus Culture Effects on Humans? Comparative extrinsic value orientation reduces quality of life and increases anxiety and depression Cost-benefit lens reduces social-environmental responsibility and creative performance
23 Calls for Paradigm Shifts Mounting
24 This is a massive window of opportunity: Hegemony of the economic development model is broken #1 Pre-Development #2 Take-off #3 Acceleration #4 Stabilisation at a New Level or Relapse Support most needed for Degree of System Change Pioneer Activity Tipping point Coalition Building Regulatory Change Anchoring of Societal Acceptance Time
25 How to Transform Unsustainable Systems? Change Mindsets and Indicators on What Systems Should Deliver Feedback and adjustments Rules and incentives Surface layer: listening to system feedback and adjusting environmental pressures maintains progress Mid layer: using the right rules and incentives can create structural change and significantly influence key drivers Mindsets Deep layer: shared mindsets translate into vision, goals and collective action Source: Donella Meadows, Leverage Points, here UNEP GEO5, p.422

35 Futures Literacy The complexity of these processes of transformation raises a number of questions, most notably about people's capacity to imagine futures that are not based on hidden, unexamined and sometimes flawed assumptions about present and past systems ( ) allowing us to experiment with novel frames for imagining the unknowable future, and enabling us to critically reassess actions designed in the present.
