    Description: The German government aims to achieve virtually climate-neutral building stock by 2050 to tackle climate change. To realise this goal, comprehensive policy packages based on neoclassical economic theory are in place to foster energy efficiency investment. However, in the building sector, there is increasingly a gap between this aspiration and the reality. It is claimed that one of the main reasons for this is that the existing policy framework fails to address the specific characteristics and needs of different groups of building owners. This is a particular challenge in Germany, where 80% of all dwellings are owned privately and 37% are rented out by small private landlords (SPL). Despite the significant numbers of SPL, they often follow black box decision-making processes when considering energy renovations. In this study, the author uses an explanatory model to understand the decision-making processes of SPL, combining theoretical aspects from different research disciplines. This model was applied to a low-demand housing market in a neighbourhood in the Ruhr area. Eighteen semi-structured interviews (each lasting between 37 and 115 min) were conducted, demonstrating that in addition to economic factors, the values, beliefs, norms and routines of SPL - as well as their personal capabilities and contextual factors - play an important role in their decision-making. Based on the findings, recommendations are made for enhancing the effectiveness of existing energy efficiency policies and other supporting instruments (e.g. tenancy law and social legislation), tailored to the specific needs of SPL.

    Description: Auf dem Weg in eine Ressourcenleichte Gesellschaft benötigen die betroffenen Akteurinnen und Akteure Leitbilder, an denen sie einen massiven Wandel wie diesen orientieren können. Der vorliegende Band stellt fünf solcher Leitbilder dar. Sie waren Hauptbestandteil des Projekts "Erfolgsbedingungen für Systemsprünge und Leitbilder einer ressourcenleichten Gesellschaft" und wurden mithilfe der Szenario -Methode erstellt. Inhaltlich wurden sie von Pionierinnen und Pionieren sowie Expertinnen und Experten ressourcenleichten Lebens erarbeitet, so dass alltagsnahe, praxistaugliche Elemente für die Leitbilder entwickelt wurden. Die Leitbilder zeigen eine große Spannbreite von Möglichkeiten, einen massiven gesellschaftlichen Wandel, wie er für eine Ressourcenleichte Gesellschaft nötig wäre, zu erreichen. Entsprechend unterschiedlich sind auch die möglichen Ressourcenschonungseffekte. Diese werden abschließend dargestellt und miteinander verglichen.

    Description: Der Abschlussbericht mit den Ergebnissen der wissenschaftlichen Begleitforschung möchte darüber informieren, wie das Projekt entwickelt, initiiert, geplant und letztlich prozessual umgesetzt worden ist. Der erste Teil gibt insbesondere die im Prozess gewonnenen Erkenntnisse weiter und nennt erste Handlungsempfehlungen. Die darauffolgenden Kapitel bündeln die Ergebnisse der wissenschaftlichen Begleitforschung, welche zudem durch vier thematisch verschiedene Masterthesen im Untersuchungsraum ergänzt werden konnten. Zielgruppe für die erarbeiteten Handlungsempfehlungen sind all jene, die eine strategische Planung im Bereich des Ehrenamtes und des Klimaschutzes auf lokaler Ebene in den ländlichen Räumen (Südwestfalens) anstreben. Der Abschlussbericht mit seinen Erkenntnissen richtet sich an die Personen, Gruppen und Institutionen auf regionaler Ebene, die gemeinsam mit Partnern einen ganzheitlichen Klimaschutz im Ehrenamt zur räumlichen Entwicklung und Gestaltung systematisch vorantreiben wollen und dabei ähnliche Voraussetzungen und Strukturen aufweisen. Nicht zuletzt aber auch die, die von den gelebten Projekten und den gesammelten Erfahrungen lernen möchten. Daher sind folgende Zielgruppen insbesondere angesprochen: Dorfgemeinschaften, Vereine, Ehrenamtliche Gruppierungen (Bürgerstiftungen, Genossenschaften), LEADER-Arbeitsgruppen, Landkreise, Städte und Kommunen, Regionalmanager, Energie- und Umweltbeauftragte, Klimaschutzmanager, Unternehmen der Wertschöpfungsketten Energie- und Klima und viele mehr.

    Description: Real-world laboratories are growing in popularity promising a contribution to both: the understanding and facilitation of societal transformation towards sustainability. Baden-Württemberg substantially funds real-world labs as part of the initiative "science for sustainability". To facilitate learning with and from these so-called BaWü-Labs, they are supported by accompanying research conducted by two teams. This article presents first insights and theses on real-world labs as a research format, based in particular on the work of the accompanying research team ForReal. The team supports the labs in their realization and in providing general insights, e.g. by learning from related international research approaches and dialog with international experts, and analyzes suitable quality features and methods (the latter together with the University of Basel team). The theses presented here put up for discussion first insights on real-world labs as a transformative research approach and reflect on them from a theoretical perspective. They illustrate the relevance of a goal-oriented use of methods and present learning processes as core characteristics of real-world labs. The theses were formulated based on discussions with the BaWü-Labs, exchange in international contexts as well as a thematic literature review.

    Description: Sustainable development is the 21st Century's wicked problem. After 40 years into this agenda have reversed only few unsustainable trends we hear the call for a paradigm shift, transformation, radical change or system innovations in order to finally change course. But what does this actually mean? And how do we put it into practice? This book describes the path ahead. It combines system transformation research with political economy and change leadership insights when discussing the need for a great mindshift in how human wellbeing, economic prosperity and healthy ecosystems are understood if the Great Transformations ahead are to lead to more sustainability. It shows that history is made by purposefully acting humans and introduces transformative literacy as a key skill in leading the radical incremental change strategies that wicked problems require, illustrating their nature through mapping pioneering practices and their commonalities.
