Societal complexity:
policy making for changes

The Methodology of Societal Complexity Course and the Compram Methodology provide insights into how to deal with complex societal problems, the theoretical basis of the methodology of societal complexity, and how to act when confronted by such a problem.
In the first four theoretical lectures you will have the opportunity to analyze one of your complex societal problems. In the second part of the course, consisting of six lectures, we approach a contemporary complex societal problem with the support of a simulation model to provide a deeper insight into the problem.
The participants will have an active approach during the course including some preparation for each lecture, consisting of literature study and preparing one's own complex societal problem. Each lecture takes three hours.
