In response to the development and climate crisis of the Anthropocene, world leaders at the 2015 UN Sustainable Development Summit in New York have reconfirmed the urgency of a sustainability transformation. This paper shows how a strong conceptualisation of sustainability
can guide scientists in contributing to this transformation. The Eastern and Southern Africa
Partnership Programme (1999–2015) offers experiences in framing and implementing research
as a transdisciplinary future-forming process. Its procedural, reflexive programme design proved
adequate to support the democratisation of knowledge generation. This fostered evidence-based
contextualised knowledge and corresponding institutions, and strengthened the future-forming
capacity of all partners involved.
