Exploring pathways for transformation to sustainability using the safe and just operating space concept at the regional level

SUccESS aimed to identify transformation pathways towards sustainability that are both safe, in terms of being within the ecological boundaries of a place, and just, in terms of being socially just. In this context, we developed a conceptual framework of four operational steps for identifying the challenges and opportunities in operationalizing SJOS for regional Social-Ecological Systems (SES). This integrative approach is an innovative way to address the sustainability of social-ecological systems (SES) and their transformation options in a globalized context. This will also help to develop methodology aimed at defining boundaries for sustainable development that can be applied to identify tipping points across various world regions. Activities such as participatory workshops planned to collect local-level data to feed into a system dynamics modelling was postponed due to the COVID-19 lockdown and early termination of the project as the ER secured a permanent position. Despite these changed contexts, most of the milestones have been achieved and it is planned to continue collaboration for the final paper. In general, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant has helped to support the career development and training of the ER by providing opportunities to acquire and transfer new knowledge both within and outside Europe and extending his network and professional maturity, which ultimately helped to secure a permanent lecturer position
