Description of Impact(s) (English Only) This review builds on key findings of IPBES Assessment and has been elaborated to operationalize the concept of transformative governance. The article argues that transformative governance is needed to enable the transformative change necessary for achieving global sustainability goals. It must be: integrative, inclusive, adaptive, and pluralist. The article further argues that governance becomes transformative only when these four governance approaches are: implemented in conjunction; operationalized in a specific manner; and focused on addressing the indirect drivers underlying sustainability issues.
