Session 7: Addressing the Challenges Concurrently - Science and Technology for Sustainable DevelopmentModerator: Detlof von Winterfeldt, Former IIASA Director and Professor, University of Southern California and Centennial Professor, London School of Economics and Political Science
Systems analysis provides a lens through which the many interlinked drivers and potential consequences of social, economic, environmental and political change can be identified, and actions or policies formulated, to avert or moderate some of their unacceptable or unwanted impacts. This requires in-depth understanding and analyses of interactions, both within and between the research areas presented in the previous three sessions. Moreover, the spatial and temporal dynamics of each challenge need to be considered so that synergies and unintended consequences can be anticipated and interventions optimized.
