Core Support for Future Earth Global Change Strategic Activities

未来地球是一个全球互联的科学组织，致力于改变社会决策，使其通过综合、可获取和共同开发的知识获得信息。美国未来地球全球中心通过支持跨学科、跨国研究，向公众提供创新而合理的可持续发展方案，并为包容性对话和技能建设提供平台，以创建一个不断扩大的专家网络，将知识转化为行动，从而推进这一进程。该项目支持美国中心在未来地球办公室星座内这些活动的战略领导地位，以及全球参与和翻译工作，以提高全球可持续性科学选择的可见度和吸收。作为贝尔蒙特论坛的合作伙伴，未来地球动员和发展全球跨学科研究社区，推进科学与社会联系的主题，并支持在这些主题的范围，资源和交流中纳入代表性不足的群体的知识。为了给这个社区提供一个聚会的地方，美国中心的工作人员领导了可持续发展研究与创新大会的共同设计和交付，这是世界上最大的年度可持续发展科学活动，它汇集了来自各个部门和地区的专家，以混合的、跨大陆的形式，强调行动和互动，而不是被动学习。新兴的可持续发展创新、绿色技术和社会技术进步在屡获殊荣的《人类世》杂志、《固定碳》通讯以及由未来地球美国中心编辑和制作的新未来选集中都有介绍。这些和其他“未来地球”计划通过一个成员门户网站得到进一步支持，该门户网站不仅扩大了9个全球中心、27个全球研究网络和19个国家委员会之间的交流，而且扩大了国际科学协调、科学政策和实施伙伴之间的交流。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Future Earth is a globally connected science-based organization working to transform societal decision making so that it is informed by integrated, accessible, and co-developed knowledge. The US Global Hub of Future Earth advances this process by supporting transdisciplinary, transnational research, making innovative yet plausible sustainability options accessible to a public audience, and providing a platform for inclusive dialogues and skill building to create an ever-broadening network of experts moving knowledge to action. This project supports the U.S. Hub’s strategic leadership of these activities within the constellation of Future Earth offices as well as the global engagement and translation efforts that raise the visibility and uptake of sustainability science options worldwide.As a partner of the Belmont Forum, Future Earth mobilizes and grows the global transdisciplinary research community, advancing themes at the nexus of science and society, and supporting the inclusion of knowledge from underrepresented groups in the scoping, resourcing, and communication of these themes. To provide this community somewhere to convene, the US Hub staff have led the co-design and delivery of the Sustainability Research and Innovation Congress, the world’s largest annual sustainability science event, which brings together experts from across sectors and geographies in a hybrid, multi-continent format that emphasizes action and interaction over passive learning. Emerging sustainability innovations, green technology, and socio-technical advances are featured in the award-winning Anthropocene Magazine, Fixing Carbon newsletter, and a new futures anthology edited and produced by the Future Earth US Hub. These and other Future Earth initiatives are further supported through a member portal that amplifies exchange not only across the 9 Global Hubs, 27 Global Research Networks, and 19 National Committees, but with international science coordination, science policy, and implementation partners.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
