Systemic change requires more than technical solutions. At Wageningen University & Research, our social and economic scientists work with you to uncover the deeper structures behind societal challenges and co-create strategies that support meaningful transformation.
Achieving sustainability transformations means looking at the bigger picture. At Wageningen University & Research, we understand that systemic change is rarely linear, one-dimensional, or quick. We help organisations explore how systems function beneath the surface - from power dynamics to behavioural norms - and what it takes to shift them.
Our work focuses on inclusive change: we assess who benefits, who bears the costs, and how to create space for underrepresented voices.
With deep roots in agri-food systems and a multidisciplinary team spanning economics, law, behavioural science, sociology, and wellbeing, we offer science-based guidance to make systemic change work in practice. Whether you're building coalitions, shaping policy, or engaging communities, we provide evidence-based frameworks and process facilitation to support your transformation goals.
Our integrated approach helps turn complex societal challenges into actionable strategies for sustainable and just transitions.
