Abstract Modernity's ideals of progress through industrialisation, coupled with rationalist views value-free and neutral science guiding policymaking, have been driving forces behind the climate crisis related injustices. Post-colonial scholarship calls for unlearning this modernist paradigm. This study examines extent to which Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), preeminent global authority change knowledge, is both shaped by procedural logic Eurocentric modernity tendencies towards these characteristics in favour more pluralistic, co-productive approaches. Through an inductive-deductive qualitative methodology, including semi-structured interviews IPCC authors policymakers at international conferences, paper finds be situated a tension field between it. On one hand, constrained path-dependencies modernity, manifested linear model knowledge transfer, differentiated systems policy spheres, privileging Western scientific expertise as universally valid apolitical. other also identifies emergent within broadening disciplinary diversity, incorporating alternative epistemologies like Indigenous Local Knowledge, fostering collaborations scientists policymakers. These nascent "unlearning" efforts signal cracks modernity's edifice, though limitations potential risks caution against overstatement. By highlighting critical juncture, contributes empirical conceptual insights into IPCC's transition from constraints pluriversal responses. analysis sheds light evolving role shaping governance ongoing struggle redefine production.
