Future Earth KANs + Sustainable Consumption and Production

Global Consensus
New World, New Concepts &
PracticesNew Role for Science
• Transdisciplinary – Solutions Oriented
• Holistic, Systemic, Integrative• Stakeholder Engaged
– Connected, Codesigned, – Responsive to society
• Planetary to local scales
1. Deliver water, energy, and food for all, and
manage the synergies and trade-offs among them
2. Decarbonise socio-economic systems to stabilisethe climate by promoting the
technological, economic, social, political and
behavioural transformations
3. Safeguard the terrestrial, freshwater and
marine natural assets, biodiversity, ecosystem
services, valuation & governance
4. Build healthy, resilient and productive cities,
combining better living, declining resource
footprints, and resilience to disasters
5. Promote sustainable rural futures to feed rising
populations, changes in biodiversity, resources
6. Improve human health interactions with
environmental pollution, pathogens, disease vectors,
ecosystem services, livelihoods, nutrition
7. Encourage sustainable consumption and
production patterns that are equitable

Knowledge Action Networks
• KAN Concept – collaboration networks that facilitate integrative sustainability research to inform solutions for Vision 2025 challenges
• Broadening work of the former Global Environmental Change [GEC] programmes
• Bring multiple disciplines and societal actors together to respond to the global challenges
• Composed of Core Projects, Fast-Tack Initiatives and Clusters, endorsed and associated organisations, projects, and individuals that are part of the Future Earth Open Network.
• Contributions voluntary through members• Document - Objectives, Principles,
Participation-Governance
KAN Objectives and Principles
Objectives
• identify and respond to society’s needs for high quality scientific knowledge for transformation to sustainability
• generate integrated knowledge that is relevant to the key decision-makers concerned with the KAN topics, in public and private sectors at global to local levels
• develop and cultivate solution-driven, transdisciplinary research i.e. designed and produced in collaboration with societal partners.
• add value to research that is or has been carried out already, by prioritizing questions, integrating research and knowledge, generating synthesis, identifying gaps and opportunities, and stimulating new research.
PrinciplesCo-creation: community priorities, develop plan -globally inclusive, synergy with existing projectsScope: Address 2025 Vision societal challenges and the three Research Themes Uniqueness: Fill knowledge gaps defined collaboratively with experts + users, synthesize and synergizeStrategy: Solution-orientation, interdisciplinarity, and co-design and co-production with partners.Outcomes: products and accomplishing tangible goals identified by co-designInternationality: Global community of researchers and practitioners beyond national or regional.Openness: Accessible for participation from interested and suitable persons and projectsInclusiveness: Inclusiveness and balance in disciplines, professional backgrounds, geographies, career stage, and gender.
• Membership: driven by the research community and relevant stakeholders, open and inclusive to participation.
• Leadership: Once defined and scoped, led by a steering group sized and structured to implement a workplan, balanced representation from Core Projects, societal partners, early-career practitioners, funding communities, SC and EC, Sec, global South and North, and gender
• Oversight: The SC/EC provides strategic guidance, and Secretariat oversees operations, Governing Council approves strategic changes.
• Management: Overall management by Steering Group and, additional management staff, plus FE Secretariat support
• Support: Future Earth Secretariat ensures the continuous progress through coordination and help in identifying new actors and communities of researchers, stakeholders and decision makers, and through communication, synthesis coordination, capacity building, engagement support, event organisation, online tools, and technical support
KANs - Participation & Governance
• Secretariat will work in the early stages to obtain seed funding to support co-design, scoping
• The bulk of the required additional funds shouldbe leveraged from external sources
• Mix of public-sector funds (such as Belmont Forum-Collaborative Research Actions on T-KAN, FWEn in Urbanization) and private foundations, private-sector partnerships, and individual donors.
• Operationalization – Initiation, Scoping, Co-producing Research, Synthesis, Engagement

Sustainable Production and Consumption• Vision 2025 - 7. Encourage
sustainable consumption and production patterns that are equitable by understanding the social and environmental impacts of consumption of all resources, opportunities for decoupling resource use from growth in well-being, and options for sustainable development pathways and related changes in human behaviour.
• SDG Goal 12: Responsible consumption, production
• Re-Infrastructuring - Food, Water, Energy• Manufacturing Systems
– Eco-efficiencies in Input, Output, Throughput– Eco-design of products, services, packaging– Waste management, recycling, reuse
• Supply Chain Management• Research Networks
– ISVC - Joerg Hofstatter– Closed Loop Supply Chain Mgt– POM Society– Organizations and Nat Env Academy of Mgmnt– GRONEN
Sustainable Production
Data, Tools, Gaps
• Data- CDP + Truecost, Bloomberg, Morgan Stanley financial/investment focused
• Tools - Lifecycle analysis, -accounting, costing, reporting tools - SASB, GRI
• Gaps-– Financial Economy-Manuf Economy – bioeconomy (natural
resources usage, disposal, recovery)– Carbon footprint of industries and corporations,
• Linkages with other KANs– FWEn - Food supply chains and their vulnerabilities– Future Earth Cities - energy decentralization esp in urban areas
• urban food production, transport, storage, recycling– FE Finance - decarbonizing susbidies
Sustainable Consumption• World Wide Waste
– Food 40%, Energy 40%, Housing 50%, Transport 75%
• Inequality – extremes• Consumption Risks
– Health (1 billion hungry) but 2 billion diabetic– Biocapacity overshoot
• New Consumption – Smart Consumption - shared economy, – Frugality, – Aging consumption
• Networks - Voluntary simplicity movement– International Centre for Anti- Consumption
Research – Consumption Sociology
The Challenge of Sustainable
Production & Consumption
