The report sets out the initial design of Future Earth, comprising a research framework and governance structure; preliminary reflections on communication and engagement, capacity-building and education strategies; and implementation guidelines.

The research agenda is structured around three central themes: dynamic planet, global development, and transformations towards sustainability. The report details the key research questions that will be addressed in each area. At its core lies a new partnership between science and society to co-design research priorities and co-produce knowledge.

The Transition Team also designed a unique governance structure. Led by a multi-stakeholder Governing Council – the ultimate decision-making body – a Science Committee and an Engagement Committee will guide the direction of Future Earth activities:

  • The Science Committee will provide scientific guidance, ensure scientific quality and guide the development of new projects.
  • The Engagement Committee will provide leadership and strategic guidance on involving stakeholders throughout the entire research process from co-design to dissemination, ensuring that Future Earth produces the knowledge that society needs.
