About us
At Future Earth, we believe that research, innovation, and collaboration can transform the world toward sustainability. We harness the experience and reach of thousands of scientists and innovators from across the globe. Together, this global community facilitates research, mobilises networks, sparks innovation, and turns knowledge into action. Our organization is rooted in the work of 27 Global Research Networks. These networks have a long history, in some cases stretching back decades, of generating research at the forefront of sustainability science. They played a critical role in forming the field of Earth system science – which considers how all of the parts of the planet, including human societies, connect to and shape each other. Our Global Research Networks also led in defining the Anthropocene, a new epoch in the geologic history of Earth marked by the influence of humans on the planet. Future Earth builds on this scientific legacy to accelerate transformations to sustainability through research and innovation. We are a major international convenor that fosters a culture of an engaged research based on the co-design and co-production of knowledge and tools. We work to incorporate the latest research findings into government, business and community decisions and policies. The Global Carbon Project’s annual projections of greenhouse gas emissions, for example, have helped to shape the targets of the Paris Agreement on climate change. We experiment in generating new ideas, innovations, and collaborations. In that vein, we are working with tech companies to develop new approaches to reducing carbon emissions. We also foster networks of early career researchers and other innovators, encouraging new ways of thinking about how sustainability research and practice gets done.

📣 The Transformative Change report has been approved by #IPBES11 Plenary this evening in Windhoek, Namibia! The first ever UN Assessment on Transformative Change! 🙌🏼 A big congratulations co-chairs Karen O'Brien (University of Oslo and cCHANGE), Arun Agrawal (University of Michigan), Lucas Alejandro Garibaldi (National University of Río Negro) and the rest of very competent author team from all around the world. Also a big congratulations to the IPBES members and stakeholders, and the whole community! Laying the ground for this Assessment and holding it all the way IPBES has done a great job! From the Norwegian side the Norwegian Environment Agency and the IPBES Focal Point lead by Nina Vik and Norges forskningsråd with Jonas Enge has been key to the process. The Transformative Change Assessment author team of more than 100 people has worked for more than 3 years on this report with such scientific rigor and dedication. From the Norwegian side, in addition to co-chair Karen O'Brien, these excellent researchers have contributed to the assessment: ✨ Coordinating lead author Fern Wickson (UiT- The Arctic University of Norway) ✨ Lead Author Vera Hausner (UiT- The Arctic University of Norway) ✨ Lead Author Håkon Stokland (NINA - Norsk institutt for naturforskning) ....and so many others! 🌍 The Assessment and the research it builds on is the results of decades of research funded by and supported by funding agencies around the world and the global research organizations such as Future Earth. So, this is a big day for so many. 💪 Now let’s get to work! #transformativechange #biodiversity #climatechange
It’s official! After years of hard work by IPBES experts, the #TransformativeChange Assessment Report is approved by the Plenary at #IPBES11! Congratulations to all on this achievement for people and #nature. 🌿🌏
