As we gather for the first time in the African Continent, the 64th meeting of the International Society for the Systems Sciences offers a unique opportunity to further our understanding of systems science, while pursuing approaches for its application in addressing United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) and many of the challenges we face today.
We will again deliver a PhD student program to offer mentorship and instruction in the use systems approaches in research and provide opportunities to win one of three awards for student papers.
As we progress into this new decade, the ISSS is in a process of regeneration. Our membership seeks new ways to create, collaborate, practice, communicate, and share our collective expertise and the rich history of the founders, and all who precede us. This year’s conference will provide the opportunity for the systems community to come together for a vibrant conference discussing systems science and approaches to support sustainable development for a better world.
This year, the ISSS is pleased to announce a collaboration with the International Federation of Systems Research (IFSR), and the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) in a joint effort to link conference discussions on water and sanitation (UN SDG 6).
