Greece
The European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) and the Institute of Inland Water of the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research are organising the KAM Fall School Rhodes - Greece: Knowledge Assessment Methodologies from 28 September to 2 October on the island of Rhodes, Greece.
This seventh edition of the school will present state-of-the-art tools and methods to address policy-related knowledge in extended policy processes. Lectures by a group of international experts will cover methodological approaches that aim to combine two goals: extending the range of actors involved in decision-making and being transparent and open about the knowledge that is fed into a policy-making cycle.
The methodologies that will be taught at the school include social multi-criteria evaluation, participatory methods and scenario building methodologies, uncertainty expression and communication, institutional analysis, quality assurance protocols, complexity, and risk in decision-making processes. The school will offer hands-on exercises with related software packages which will be available for use by the participants.For further information, please visit:
