Our work is anchored in research that is conducted within the SustainTrans Research Team at Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH), that integrates the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) with system analysis and system dynamic understanding.

The Sustaintrans Research Team at BTH is focused on the integration of:

• The Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) – that offers a principled sustainability definition and a strategic backcasting logic
  

with

• system analysis and system dynamic methods – that offer understanding for structure, feedback, delays and dynamic behavior in complex systems
  
  

This integrated research program is specifically focused on:

how complex socio-technical systems can be strategically directed towards sustainability

This integration thereby also shapes how our laboratory:

• defines sustainability
• understands complex systems
• reasons around sustainability transition pathways
