Transformations for Communal Sustainability: Pluriversal Thinking
Achieving sustainability within planetary boundaries requires more than a universalized approach to sustainable development—it requires a deep localization of efforts that centers socioecological justice and addresses environmental racism. The principle of “leaving no one behind” challenges us to rethink how the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are localized in ways that are context-sensitive and transformative.

The Brazilian Savannah, or Cerrado, is facing profound challenges, having lost over 50% of its primary forest and becoming a hub for commodity exportation. What happens in the Cerrado does not stay in the Cerrado—it impacts global grain supplies and the livelihoods of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs). This research explores collaborative processes involving IPLCs to integrate their worldviews into sustainability actions for transformative change.
