Abstract
Sustainable development is often trapped in rigid social and ecological processes that drive environmental degradation and entrench poverty and marginalisation, leaving societies ill-prepared for accelerating environmental and technological change. Breaking free from these lock-ins demands approaches that can open new pathways, anticipate long-term dynamics, navigate uncertainty and balance competing values across space and time. This talk will explore how bridging the silos between science and design can unlock and guide such pathways toward desirable futures.
