Inspire Incremental Radicality - Six Civic Roles für Systemic Transformation

The WGBU (2011) calls the sustainability transition towards a net-zero Europe the biggest challenge that mankind has ever faced. Naturally, all parts of society need to take their toll. In its statement paper ‘The Great Transformation’ (2011), the WGBU highlights the innovative and trans-formative potential of civic engagement within the sustainability trans-formation, a recurring claim made within the field of transformative re-search (WGBU 2011, 2020, Göpel 2016). Yet, there are not enough of-
fers for citizens to acquire the necessary skills, Futures and Transforma-tive Literacy. While more and more research and political institutions are incorporating the theories of sustainability transformation as a frame-work, the question of who will take on the task of building transforma-tive competencies among citizens remains open (EEA, 2019).
