The Great Transition Initiative (GTI) is a collective endeavor of scholars and activists to imagine and advance a great transition to a global future of enriched lives, human solidarity, and a healthy planet. It aims to give texture to the popular slogan "another world is possible". GTIâ€™s network of 200 participants from 40 countries contributed to the preparation of this series through a general exploration of ideas, thematic working groups, and review. The papers elaborate the global challenge, future visions, and strategic directions. Rather than "blueprints" of the future, they seek to intrigue and engage others in the enterprise of inspiring change beyond the crisis and despair of the day.
