Seminar on modeling and narratives of decision-making and behavioral change

Prof. Ilan Chabay from Potsdam University gave a seminar at Sony CSL Paris about understanding and facilitating societal transformations towards just, equitable, and sustainable futures. He is Head of Strategic Science Initiatives and Programs and the knowledge, learning, and societal change research alliance (www.KLASICA.org) at IASS.

During the seminar, he focused on how knowledge production, learning processes, and collective behavior changes interact in diverse societies and how and why actors in communities move or fail to use and promote sustainable societies. His particular interest is on understanding decision-making and behavioral change through the lenses of modeling and narratives as analytical and affective components of decision-making on complex systems.
