The document discusses the Luchtsingel initiative in Rotterdam and draws several conclusions. It summarizes that:
1) The Luchtsingel connects and strengthens existing developments in the area while opening it up and having a noticeable economic impact, though expectations for the future are high and ambiguous.
2) The initiative exemplifies the challenges and possibilities of a new style of participatory urban development but requires a broader vision and new governance approach.
3) The city government struggles with participation if not supported by policy, and participatory governance demands redefining all roles as well as playing multiple roles.
Transition Management is a transdisciplinary approach for addressing persistent social problems and enabling system innovation for sustainability. It uses a complex systems framework to take an integrated perspective on social systems and their multi-level dynamics over the long term. The approach involves multi-actor governance to stimulate and facilitate social learning, experiments, and innovation in order to influence the speed and direction of ongoing societal transitions to more sustainable systems.

Transition management & the multi-level perspectiveDr Gary Kerr
This document discusses transition management and the multi-level perspective framework. It explains that transition management seeks to transform society from one equilibrium to another by reducing uncertainty, producing desirable social outcomes, and enhancing resilience. The multi-level perspective views sociotechnical transitions as emerging from interactions between niches (spaces for radical innovation), socio-technical regimes (stabilized practices and technologies), and an exogenous socio-technical landscape. Niche innovations can build momentum and eventually disrupt and replace existing regimes when landscape pressures create windows of opportunity.
The document summarizes a presentation about understanding social systems transitions and transition management strategies. It discusses analyzing complex social systems, transition dynamics involving fundamental shifts across multiple levels over time, and a transition management approach to influence transitions through visioning, experimentation, and multi-actor governance.

The document discusses transitioning the current consumption and production system to one that achieves equitable well-being within planetary boundaries. It proposes identifying alternative provisioning systems like sharing economies and circular economies. It also suggests developing financial incentives and reflecting on well-being from economic and social perspectives. Questions are posed about understanding the social structures and power dynamics behind needed changes, identifying champions of reform, and how research can help array tools to achieve the goals. Overarching research questions focus on unpacking current systems, interventions, stakeholder interests, operationalizing sustainable consumption corridors, and linking consumption and production changes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
Technology in socio cultural contex by Sajjad Ahmad Awan PhD Scholar TE DTSC ...Malik Sajjad Ahmad Awan
The document discusses the social nature of technology and innovation. It makes three key points:
1) Technologies are social constructs that evolve within a cultural context, not predetermined outcomes with an internal logic.
2) The social and economic patterns embedded in technologies and innovation processes show that they are shaped by the conditions in which they are created and used, not just technical factors.
3) Foresight exercises aim to understand and influence the direction of technological change, but need to better account for the social embedding of technologies and link to other policy tools to achieve broader societal goals like sustainability.
This document outlines the agenda for a cluster evaluation working group meeting. It discusses the challenges of evaluating clusters and cluster policies, including the gap between academic and practical approaches. The morning session will present four studies on different evaluation approaches and discuss their benefits and limitations.

A poll will gauge the biggest barriers to useful cluster evaluation and the priority for new indicator development.
This document discusses urban transitions and transition management. It notes that urban transitions are inevitable but may not lead to sustainability due to barriers like policy fragmentation. Transition management is presented as a framework to help accelerate transitions towards sustainability through a multi-level and multi-actor governance approach. The framework involves developing transition arenas, agendas, and experiments to help shift systems to more sustainable configurations over time. Examples of applying transition management in various cities are also provided.
Perspectives on Innovation and Technology TransferMikus Dubickis
This document discusses relationships between innovation and technology transfer. It begins by defining innovation as new combinations or ideas that are implemented, and technology transfer as the adoption or application of innovations developed elsewhere. The document then describes how it used focus group discussions and a systematic literature review to analyze relationships between innovation and technology transfer. Focus groups with doctoral students explored their understanding of innovation and technology transfer. A review of existing typologies and taxonomies related to innovation and technology transfer identified three potential relationships between the concepts.
This document outlines common challenges faced by the UN in developing more impact-oriented monitoring and evaluation systems, and provides potential solutions. It notes that while some UN agencies conduct impact evaluations, many evaluations do not fully address attribution of impacts. It then presents examples of approaches that strengthen causal logic and frameworks to better assess attribution and aggregate evidence of impacts across levels, such as the GEF's Review of Outcome to Impact model and UNDP's meta-reviews of country program evaluations.

Consulting engineers play an important role in sustainability transitions through their work advising on projects that shape the built environment. While they must consider costs and customer needs, many consulting engineers engage in mundane transition work through activities like:
1) Sustainable technological problem solving like improving energy efficiency.
2) Persuading clients to adopt more sustainable solutions.
3) Mediating between stakeholders to facilitate sustainable outcomes.
4) Institutional work like interpreting environmental regulations and standards. Government policies can both guide and provide more flexibility for consulting engineers' transition efforts.

The document presents a model called the Transition Readiness Profile for identifying how and where design can intervene in system transitions. The profile aims to anticipate the dynamics of a system transition and identify opportunities for design to accelerate the transition. It does this through analyzing stakeholders at the individual, organizational, and system levels, and mapping values, behaviors, relationships, and "capitals of power" to understand transition readiness. The profile was tested through an exploratory pilot study of a transition to a food system with less consumer food waste.
The document discusses transitions towards sustainable development. It notes that persistent problems like climate change require fundamental changes to societal systems, structures, cultures and practices (transitions). Transition management is presented as an approach to facilitate such transitions through long-term envisioning, multi-actor collaboration, experimentation and focusing on learning and innovation. Examples of transition processes in waste management, energy and other domains are provided.
The document discusses the Plan C network in Flanders, which was established in 2006 to promote sustainable materials management. It aimed to transition the waste management system using an approach inspired by transition management. The network helped facilitate communication and studies but faced challenges maintaining momentum. Lessons indicate a need for tailored tools, business involvement, adaptive financing, political embedding, and partnering internationally to strengthen the building blocks of the transition process.

Wp.Priority Setting, Paris 29 30 Oct. 07Wolfgang_Polt
This document discusses issues related to priority setting in science and technology. It defines priority setting as the deliberate selection of certain activities, actors, or policies over others to impact resource allocation. Evaluation is defined as the systematic assessment of the rationale, implementation, and impact of policy interventions. The document outlines different dimensions of priority setting processes, paradigms, actors involved, and means used. It also discusses the role and limitations of evaluations in informing priority setting decisions.
1. Sustainable development requires transitions to more sustainable systems that incorporate processes of societal, ecological, economic, cultural and technological evolution over the long term.
2. Governance for sustainability transitions should allow societies to self-organize towards sustainability through deliberate and reflexive strategies that promote innovation while securing long-term sustainability values.
3. An operational framework for transition governance includes strategic visioning, experimental tactics at the subsystem level, monitoring and evaluation, and science-policy co-production to guide transitions.
ICT and Change Management by Sajjad Haider for UrgingPeopleToExcelSajjad Haider
This document discusses ICT (Information, Communication, Technology) and change management. It defines change as addition, modification, or removal, and notes that change can be abrupt, gradual, systematic, expected, manual, or technology supported. It states that all changes affecting more than one person should follow appropriate change management procedures to minimize impacts. Key activities in change management procedures are outlined, including change initiation, classification, evaluation, authorization, scheduling, testing, implementation, and review. The document then discusses understanding ICT and change in the context of globalization, defining globalization and hyper-globalization. It notes the influence of ICT on everyday life and concepts of knowledge, information, and personal integrity. Finally, it discusses resources
IEA DSM Task 24 involved multiple participating countries working together over two phases to research and promote best practices in behavior change for demand-side management (DSM) of energy. Phase I from 2012-2015 included case studies, workshops, publications and an online platform. Phase II aims to provide tools and guidance to "behavior changers" through understanding practices, developing interventions and standardizing evaluation metrics beyond just kilowatt hours. The task takes a holistic approach focusing on human needs and behaviors within the energy system and emphasizes cross-sector collaboration to drive system-wide changes.

The document discusses transitions to more sustainable societies. It describes transitions as fundamental changes in dominant regimes that are long-term and unmanageable processes that require new forms of governance. The MUSIC project aims to catalyze and mainstream carbon reduction in five cities by developing a transition management strategy and geospatial energy information system. The process involves information-based transition processes that visualize transition scenarios and assess potential problems and perspectives to move cities toward more sustainable futures.
The document discusses a new governance paradigm called "transitions governance" that is capable of responding to continuous societal change. It proposes governance based on the dynamics of change, with principles that co-produce innovative capital, co-mobilize resources, and enable societies to co-evolve and adapt. A detection framework would identify macro-level drivers of change, while an orientation framework provides tenets to guide societies towards transition without direct steering. The presentation seeks to govern systems based on their changing nature and open discussion on new approaches.
1. The document discusses oxymorons related to sustainability transitions, including coordinated emergence, evolutionary revolution, deliberative steering, short-term envisioning, selective participation, and undefined experiments.
2. It proposes ways to resolve the contradictions in these oxymorons, such as using transition arenas to coordinate emergence through collective discussions, considering both short-term incremental changes and long-term fundamental changes in evolutionary revolutions, and allowing for both bottom-up and top-down processes in deliberative steering.
3. The document calls for further debating governance of transitions, communicating transition research, developing transition tools, and internationalizing the transition approach.

Bosch & Rotmans 2008, Wittmayer et al. 2009, Sondeijker 2009,
Van den Bosch 2010, Frantzeskaki et al 2012c, Roorda et al. 2012,
Taanman et al. 2012)
• Urban innovation processes (Loorbach 2009, Frantzeskaki et al.
2012b, Wittmayer et al. 2012, Roorda et al. 2012, Roorda 2012,
Van Steenbergen et al. 2012, Lodder & Krosse 2012)
7. Theoretical evolution (2)
• Analyses of sectoral transitions: energy (Loorbach & Verbong 2012),
mobility (Zijlstra & Avelino 2012, Avelino et al. 2012), health care (Van
Raak & De Haan forthcoming), water (Van der Brugge 2009, Frantzeskaki
2011), and infrasystems (Frantzeskaki & Loorbach 2010)
• Grassroots innovations, social movements, social economy and self-
organisation (Avelino & Kunze 2009, Wittmayer 2011, Avelino et al. 2012)
• Transitions in relation to socio-ecological resilience and biodiversity
(Van der Brugge & Van Raak 2007, Van der Brugge 2009, Westley et al.
2011, Frantzeskaki 2011)
• Power, politics, discourse and other critical engagements with
transition studies (Jhagroe 2011, Avelino 2011, Jhagroe & Wijsman 2011,
Eshuis, et al. 2012, Van Steenbergen & Wittmayer 2012, Wittmayer 2012,
Jhagroe & Frantzeskaki 2012)
• Transition perspectives on the economic crisis (Lijnis Huffenreuter
2012) and the role of business (Wijsman & Loorbach 2012)

16. Transition lock-in?
• Transition field established, dominated by
socio-technical regime
• Different ‘schools’ hardly
interact/exchange/cocreate
• We are stuck in optimising the established
regime
• Lack of strategy to really impact science, policy
and society together
17. Escaping the lock-in
• Celebrate the diversity, make intellectual tensions
explicit and use them
• Kill our darlings: no more multiplying MLP, TIS, TM, SNM
• Strategize
– Global database of transition experiments/social innovation
– Face up to external (science/policy) regimes and destabilize
– Create global transition network based on existing hubs
– New themes: socio-economic domain, transition in science, policy
transition, …
– Our mission: a world in transition?
