Theme & Programme

Theme

During the last six years the Knowledge Network on System Innovations and Transitions (KSI) examined what is needed to make a transformation towards a sustainable society. Dozens of scientists from Dutch en foreign universities and research institutes participated at this quest. That search for innovations and transitions resulted in several successful and pioneering projects and programs. Because in August 2010 KSI ends, it is time to provide a state of the art.
What is the legacy of KSI for the academic world and our society?
This question highlights the Final Conference of KSI that takes place at 3 and 4 June 2010 in Rotterdam.
