2024 Annual Report

Abstract

We are pleased to announce the release of the Earth System Governance Project 2024 Annual Report, highlighting the network’s key activities, research, and collaborations over the past year.

Amid an increasingly complex global landscape — marked by conflict, inequality, and accelerating environmental change — the ESG network remained a vital space for critical, interdisciplinary work. In 2024, our hybrid forum gathered over 900 participants worldwide to explore the theme “Re-Imagining Earth System Governance in an Era of Polycrisis.” Moreover, the network continued to advance its work through our Taskforces, Working Groups, Research Centers and flagship publications.

The report is available to download. We invite our community and stakeholders to explore the detailed insights, achievements, and forward-looking initiatives outlined in this comprehensive report.
