Global environmental change (GEC) and sustainability science (SS) communities' science is increasingly challenged to inform transformations to sustainability. Recognizing this, the Global Land Programme (GLP), a network of the international land system science community, is developing, testing, and launching new network infrastructures, science-policy interfaces, and co-production approaches. This paper charts the efforts of the GLP - since its 2015 joining of Future Earth, a 10-year initiative to advance global sustainability science - to support the land system science community as it endeavors to produce transformative research oriented toward sustainable development. Moving from incremental to transformational modes of knowledge co-production across scientific research networks - such as those represented under the umbrella of the Future Earth - requires that these work across multiple knowledge domains, scales, contexts, and regions, and in collaboration with a diversity of actors from global-level decisionmakers to national, regional, and local level civil society organizations as well as the private sector. Beyond the generation of fundamental science, GLP's rich co-design tradition of working with land managers and linking case-study and field-based research to global synthesis situate it as a key institution and platform accelerating transformative research oriented toward sustainable development.
