The fourth theme is that of transition management , particularly vis-à-vis, disruptive technologies  or broader societal disruptions . Recent literature has given attention to how actors can use disruptive events, such as disasters, as a window of opportunity for accelerating changes in policies, practices and behaviours  . This is consistent with concepts in resilience thinking around 'building back better' after disasters . For example, Hepburn et al. discuss fiscal recovery packages for COVID-19 as a means of accelerating climate action, with a particular influence on clean physical infrastructure, building efficiency retrofits, investment in education and training, natural capital investment, and clean research and development .
