Sustainability is not a political preference – it is a systemic condition.
These reports offer a systems analysis of why current policies fail,
and where the real boundaries for sustainability lie.

Many debates assume sustainability is about better behaviour.

This project starts elsewhere:
What kinds of behaviour do our systems actually reward?

If unsustainable outcomes are structurally incentivised,
individual choices will never be enough.

Many sustainability debates focus on what policies to choose.

This project asks a different question:
What kinds of policies are even possible inside a growth-dependent system?

In election years, sustainability is often reduced
to promises of more growth, more jobs, more consumption.
That logic is precisely what makes societies unsustainable.
This project examines the structural contradiction.

Most sustainability policies fail for the same reason.
They try to optimise parts of a system
whose core logic remains unchanged.
If a society depends on perpetual growth,
no amount of “green” reform will make it sustainable.

Towards a Sustainable Society links directly to the UN SDGs.
We address SDG 11 (cities), 12 (consumption), 13 (climate) and 16 (institutions).
The goals are connected – and must be addressed together.
