Dr. Epaminondas Bellos has been a civil servant for most of his professional life. This background has fostered in him a keen interest in the interplay between energy security and energy transition as one of the key mechanisms necessary for the larger transition towards sustainability. Political processes will inevitably play a role, in particular modes of collective decision-making as the principal precursors to final decision-taking, but these aspects have been largely neglected in the current solution space. He seeks to narrow these gaps by way of Sustainability Thinking explaining that it is a part of our evolutionary trajectory involving a blend of divergent and convergent thinking that is in need of both public participation and expert techniques. Dr. Bellos also maintains an active curiosity about how ethics and philosophy can contribute to a renewed reverence for all life that can underpin sustainability and embed it in national constitutions as a human right. He intends to pursue all these interests primarily by research, teaching, writing, and public speaking.
