Concurrent with the sustainable development goals adoption and the UN Climate negotiations, 2015 also marked the formal establishment of the Future Earth scientific platform, envisioned as a 10-year research program for global sustainability.Future Earth merges previous scientific programs in the global environmental change realmincluding biodiversity science from DIVERSITAS, the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme, and the International Human Dimensions Programme.The merging of programs offers a way to reduce redundancy, but even more powerfully, a way to bring together seemingly disparate facets of global change research communities to work more collaboratively.Accordingly, Future Earth seeks to encourage fundamental scientific work, integrate sciences across disciplines, especially incorporating the social sciences, humanities, and health and engineering sciences.It also seeks co-designing science projects with stakeholders such as users and funders to develop solutions oriented research.We intend to catalyze new relationships and a new model for research.A key to our success is co-design and co-production of knowledge-the upfront joint creation of research questions that can lend more ready application of findings by potential users.Governments, industry, and civil society are our key stakeholders.Future Earth is not starting from scratch; it is built on the existing critical research that has shown the many effects of anthropogenic forces on our health and environment and the need for action.Through its core projects, it maintains the importance of continued fundamental scientific knowledge generation.Research is spread across three themes-'Dynamic Planet, ' 'Global Sustainable Development,' and 'Transformations Toward Sustainabil-
