Sustainability science, its methodological characteristics and reach in decision-making processes
The transition toward sustainability is the set of changes and decisions a group of people make in order to resolve problems of sustainability. To address these problems a scientific trend has emerged called sustainability science, which has been considered to be a science inspired by the use of knowledge and must have characteristics such as transdisciplinarity, participation, social learning, coproduction of knowledge, as well as consider multiple perspectives and scales of problems and the uncertainty inherent to them. However, scientific research plays a particularly important role in the decision making processes. The chances of success greatly increase when permits interaction and communication between researchers and decision makers, or other actor. This paper analyzes how the characteristics in question contribute to the promotion of changes toward sustainability.
