  • Facing backlash and derailment risks

    Open AccessPer Olsson, Michele-Lee Moore et al.ARTICLEGlobal Sustainability2026

  • Both adaptive and transformative capacities are necessary to navigate global polycrisis

    Open AccessPeter Søgaard Jørgensen, Louis Delannoy et al.ARTICLEGlobal Sustainability2026

    Non-technical summary Efforts toward global sustainability transformations risks being undermined by the formation of a global polycrisis, where multiple global challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, geopolitical conflict, and pandemics interact to reinforce each other. Resilience scholarship has identified multiple capacities needed for adaptation and transformation of social-ecological systems. Here, we explore the leverage and v…

  • More than a buzzword? Mapping interpretations of the ‘polycrisis’

    Open AccessLouis Delannoy, Jean-Charles Leveugle et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2026

    The concept of ‘polycrisis’ leapt from Davos into everyday policy talk, yet its meaning remains fluid and sometimes contradictory. To take stock, we asked fifty experts to sort key related statements, and carried out a Q-methodology analysis to reveal four distinct framings. All experts agree that polycrisis spills across sectors and borders and reject the view that polycrisis is a mere buzzword. They diverge, however, on how much faith to place …

  • ‘When global health meets global goals’

    Open AccessLuong Nguyen Thanh, Didier Wernli et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    BACKGROUND: Sustainable development goals (SDGs) may play a pivotal role in mitigating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This study examines how countries can integrate AMR mitigation with sustainable development strategies, providing evidence on the prioritisation of AMR-related efforts within both agendas. METHODS: We conducted a comparative analysis of the international global action plan (GAP) and national action plan (NAP) on AMR and SDGs acro…

  • Association between national action and trends in antibiotic resistance

    Open AccessPeter Søgaard Jørgensen, Luong Nguyen Thanh et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    The world’s governments have agreed on actions to address the challenge of antibiotic resistance. This raises the question of what level of national action is associated with improved outcomes, including both slower growth and lower levels of antibiotic resistance. Answering this question is challenged by variation in data availability and quality as well as disruptive events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. We investigate the association between l…

  • Exploring the factors that contribute to the successful implementation of antimicrobial resistance interventions

    Open AccessTiscar Graells, Irene Lambraki et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a challenge to modern medicine. Interventions have been applied worldwide to tackle AMR, but these actions are often not reported to peers or published, leading to important knowledge gaps about what actions are being taken. Understanding factors that influence the implementation of AMR interventions and what factors are relevant in low-middle-income countries (LMICs) and high-income countries (HICs…

  • Outside the Safe Operating Space of the Planetary Boundary for Novel Entities

    Open AccessLinn Persson, Bethanie Carney Almroth et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Science & Technology2022

    We submit that the safe operating space of the planetary boundary of novel entities is exceeded since annual production and releases are increasing at a pace that outstrips the global capacity for assessment and monitoring. The novel entities boundary in the planetary boundaries framework refers to entities that are novel in a geological sense and that could have large-scale impacts that threaten the integrity of Earth system processes. We review…

  • Governing Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in a Changing Climate

    Open AccessIrene Lambraki, Irene Anna Lambraki et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global crisis with long-term and unpredictable health, social and economic impacts, with which climate change is likely to interact. Understanding how to govern AMR amidst evolving climatic changes is critical. Scenario planning offers a suitable approach. By envisioning alternative futures, stakeholders more effectively can identify consequences, anticipate problems, and better determine how…

  • The lure of novel biological and chemical entities in food-system transformations

    Open AccessPeter Søgaard Jørgensen, Daniel Itzamna Avila-Ortega et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2022

    Synthetic chemicals and biologically engineered materials are major forces in today's food systems, but they are also major drivers of the global environmental changes and health challenges that characterize the Anthropocene. To address these challenges, we will need to increase assessment activity, promote alternative production practices with less reliance on such technologies, and regulate social campaigns and experiments

  • Building a multisystemic understanding of societal resilience to the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessDidier Wernli, Mia Clausin et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2021

    The current global systemic crisis reveals how globalised societies are unprepared to face a pandemic. Beyond the dramatic loss of human life, the COVID-19 pandemic has triggered widespread disturbances in health, social, economic, environmental and governance systems in many countries across the world. Resilience describes the capacities of natural and human systems to prevent, react to and recover from shocks. Societal resilience to the current…

  • Governing evolution

    Open AccessYves Carrière, Zachary S Brown et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2020Cited by: 2References: 57

    Cooperative management of pest susceptibility to transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) crops is pursued worldwide in a variety of forms and to varying degrees of success depending on context. We examine this context using a comparative socioecological analysis of resistance management in Australia, Brazil, India, and the United States. We find that a shared understanding of resistance risks among government regulators, growers, and other actors …

  • Placing children and adolescents at the centre of the Sustainable Development Goals will deliver for current and future generations

    Open AccessTobias Alfvén, Johan Dahlstrand et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2019

    Child health is taking the back seat in development strategies. In summarising a newly released collaborative report, this paper calls for a novel conceptual model where child health takes centre stage in relation to the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals. It lays out five principles by which renewed effort and focus would yield the most benefit for children and adolescents. These include: re-defining global child health in the pos…

  • Tradeoffs between resistance to antimicrobials in public health and their use in agriculture

    Open AccessGuillaume Lhermie, Didier Wernli et al.ARTICLEEcological Economics2019References: 5

    Antimicrobial use (AMU) in animal agriculture contributes to select resistant bacteria potentially transferred to humans directly or indirectly via the food chain, representing a public health hazard. Yet, a major difference triggering AMU in food animal production is that in addition to therapeutic cure, farmers use antimicrobials to keep their herds healthy and highly productive, while ensuring animal welfare and food safety objectives. As a so…
