CECAN Seminar: Supporting Decision Making Under Deep Uncertainty

May 15, 2017 | News

CECAN would like to extend thanks to Jan Kwakkel, Associate Professor from the Delft University of Technology, who took time out of his busy schedule to deliver a seminar to a large group of civil servants working in nexus policy areas.

Jan described some of the work he has been doing on adaptive policy planning and exploratory modelling, using real life case studies of applying these methods to Dutch water planning and flood risk issues.

Football fans will enjoy his closing visual analogy of how his methods compare to the art of winning the big game!

You can watch the movie of his seminar below and accompanying slides are available to download here:

In case you missed last week's webinar: 'Lessons from commissioning, implementing and evaluating a multi-site, complex system change programme using a developmental evaluation approach', a recording is now available on the CECAN website: www.cecan.ac.uk/videos/
