Abstract
Ways towards sustainable development will require mutual learning processes and processes of change across disciplines and stakeholders and between the Global South and North. The new Institute for Sustainable Development and Learning aims to meet these requirements ‐ through transdisciplinary learning as evidence-generating and evidence-supported learning processes on the individual, organizational and societal levels, thus fostering fundamental system transformations. It invites scholars and other societal actors from the Global South and North to collaborate and partner.

There is emphasis on the crucial need to find “ways of promoting the social learning that will be necessary to navigate the transition to sustainability” (Kates et al 2001, p. 642)
With triple-loop learning, new ways of thinking are sought after, progressing from reflection on how to do things differently towards how to do different things. This understanding of learning is very closely linked to transdisciplinarity as a problem- and solution-oriented research practice that plays a central role in sustainability science
