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.
