Systems of Sustainable Consumption and Production (SSCP) Knowledge-Action Network (KAN) is a global network of researchers and practitioners interested in ways that systems of sustainable consumption and production can be created, nurtured and contribute to a more sustainable world. SSCP KAN works to advance a more systemic approach to SCP, and to encourage and enable an urgent transformation in theory and practice to SCP systems.

Introduction to Future Earth SSCP KAN
1.
2. What is Future Earth?
A global network of scientists, researchers, and innovators
collaborating for a more sustainable planet.
Mission: To accelerate
transformations to global
sustainability through
research and innovation.
Vision: for people to thrive
in a sustainable and
equitable world.
• Officially announced at the UN Conference on Sustainable
Development (Rio+20, 2012), to be created as a global initiative to
strengthen the interface between policy and science.
• Builds on more than three decades of global environmental change
research by Global Research Projects.
• Became fully operational at the end of 2015.
• Currently governed by the International Science Council, the Belmont
Forum of funding agencies, the United Nations Educational, Scientific,
and Cultural Organization(UNESCO), the United Nations Environment
Programme (UNEP), the United Nations University (UNU), the World
Meteorological Organization (WMO), the Sustainable Development
Solutions Network (SDSN) and the Science and Technology in Society
(STS) Forum.
History
3. Strategy
How Future Earth Works
• Focus on a systems-based approaches to understanding complex Earth systems and human
dynamics across different disciplines.
• Use this understanding to underpin evidence-systems-based policies and strategies for sustainable
development.
Mechanism
Develop the knowledge and tools that
government, communities, and companies
need to meet the United Nations’ 17
Sustainable Development Goals.
By understanding connections among environmental, social and economic
systems, Future Earth works to facilitate research and innovation, build and
mobilize networks and shape the narrative, turning knowledge into action.

6. KNOWLEDGE-ACTION NETWORK on
Systems of Sustainable Consumption and Production
Goal:
Promote a more systemic approach to sustainable consumption and
production and enable a transformation in theory and practice.
Challenge:
- Address whole provisioning systems:
• consumption practices
• production conditions
• life-cycle impacts
• economic, political, social, and cultural imperatives that
impel consumerist lifestyles
- Strengthen collaboration between research and
practice to move toward more holistic and systemic
approaches and solutions.
Status:
Completed development stage ― Research and Engagement Plan
approved by the Future Earth Executive Team in August 2018.

Editor's Notes
Facilitate research and innovation: Our 20 Global Research Projects explore interactions among humans and the planet’s land, air, water and biodiversity. We develop and partner on initiatives that experiment with technology, data, media, and new ideas.
Build and mobilize networks: Our knowledge-action networks link policy, business and civil leaders with researchers to address themes like health, urbanization, natural assets and more. We also focus on engaging diverse early career professionals from a range of disciplines and sectors.
Shape the narrative: We help incorporate the latest science into global decision-making and engage in conversations on sustainability solutions. Flagship products include our 10 New Insights in Climate Science and award-winning Anthropocene Magazine.
International offices: Building transformations to a more sustainable world is a task that falls to the entire planet. Future Earth also recognizes that each region of the globe also faces unique challenges, so we have 5 global hubs, 4 regional centers and offices, and 16 national and local organizations that propel research toward unique solutions to make progress on sustainability.
