It explores the root causes of the current lack of progress towards the goals and their targets, as well as the successes achieved with respect to specific SDGs. Coming from multidisciplinary backgrounds, the contributors to this handbook reflect on some of the transformative approaches that are needed to enhance the efficacy of the SDGs and what kinds of revisions to the goals or extensions of the agenda might be effective. Examples of best practice in the pursuit of some SDGs are presented to illustrate those directions. Based around the notion of human security, the handbook advocates for a fresh approach to scientific epistemology and governance in order to achieve social and ecological wellbeing for all in the generations to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eNicolina Montesano Montessori \u003c\/strong\u003erecently retired as associate professor at Utrecht University of Applied Sciences, Research Centre of Digital Business and Media (The Netherlands).
