The Global Scenario Group was convened in 1995 by the
Tellus Institute and
Stockholm
Environment Institute to engage a distinguished and diverse
international group in an examination of the prospects for world
development in the twenty-first century. Numerous studies at global,
regional, and national levels have relied on the Group’s scenario
framework and quantitative analysis.
The Global Scenario Group synthesized its findings for a non-technical audience in: Great Transition: The Promise and Lure of the Times Ahead
This path-breaking essay presents a fresh vision for a sustainable world. It describes the historic roots, current dynamics, future perils, and alternative pathways for world development. It advances one of these paths, Great Transition, as the preferred route, identifying strategies, agents of change, and values for a new global agenda.
