The Weizenbaum Institute for the Networked Society is organizing its sixth annual conference on the subject of ‘Uncertain journeys into digital futures: Inter- and transdisciplinary research for mitigating wicked societal and environmental problems’.

WUR hosts a Lunch Seminar and we will hold the workshop on Transdisciplinary approaches for co-producing Resilience Assessment on Thursday 13 June, 2024 from 12pm to 5pm at WUR Campus.

We are delighted to welcome 3 guest speakers from academia (Stevens Institute and Georgia Institute of Technology) and practice (Den Haag Municipality) for our workshop on The Past and the Future of Resilience in Theory and Practice

"Transformative Research for Sustainability Challenges" is an exclusive PhD course designed to empower doctoral candidates with innovative concepts and methodologies. These tools will not only enhance the potential of your research but also drive positive change in society and the environment.

Workshop Transdisciplinary approaches for co-producing Resilience Assessment

Workshop Transdisciplinary approaches for co-producing Resilience Assessment

From 2 to 7 July 2023, the summer school: “Resilience of living systems” will take place. The Graduate School for Production Ecology & Resource Conservation offers a course for those interested in resilience and Agent-Based Models, regardless of specialisation. During this course, the participants become acquainted with different resilience concepts and their application from an interdisciplinary perspective. The course is primarily intended for PhD students, academics, and people working on the interface of academia and policy-making.

The 2023 International Conference on Resilient Systems is an excellent opportunity for PhD-students, researchers, policy-makers and resilience practitioners from across the world to meet and share expertise in the design, development, analysis and implementation of resilient social-technical-environmental systems. With a variety of (keynote) speakers, interactive sessions and the opportunity to share research with international colleagues, the conference will offer the attendees the latest updates and breakthroughs in the field of Resilience

9 June 2023 the 4TU.HTSF (High Tech for a Sustainable Future) Meeting will take place. During this meeting, the HTSF umbrella presents the results of the first round of funded programmes, such as the DeSIRE programme (Designing Systems for Informed Resilience Engineering). This meeting is a follow-up to the DeSIRE Conference 2022. 

Join us for a workshop on the potential of AI in tackling the world's most pressing challenges, including the climate crisis, pandemics, and food security. AI can assist in disaster recovery efforts, predict human mobility during disasters, and forecast the needs of affected populations. However, AI faces complex decision-making processes, high levels of uncertainty, and moral dilemmas in disaster situations.

On 2 December 2022,  the Faculty of Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (ITC) of the University of Twente organises a symposium on Digital urban infrastructures! 

From February 22, 2022 we will start Thematic Seminars every three weeks. The seminars will be organized by our 4TU RE DeSIRE Thematic Working Groups. Slots & times will be rotating, so everyone (also fellows from other time zones) have at least the possibility to join a few of the seminars. We aim at 12 sessions this year, two dedicated seminars per DeSIRE theme.

It is with pleasure that we invite you to attend our yearly DeSIRE Conference: two days in which all the facets of Designing Systems for Informed Resilience Engineering will be touched upon in the full scope of its supporting themes. Through thematic sessions - nicely balancing both inspirational talks by our researchers and interactive tours or workshops, the DeSIRE community will show the results made in the Resilience Engineering domains of Agri, Cyber, Decision-Making, Energy, Ethics, Networks, Urban, and Water.
