Berlin Science Week Decision Theater: Regional Economic Transformation
Explore solutions for regional disparities and the Lausitz coal transition. Discover models for equitable economic development and social responsibility at our upcoming event.

Globally governments aim to address the challenges of regional disparities and inequalities. This event will introduce models of regional transformation and economic development that enable decision makers to identify realistic scenarios as well as the challenges that need to be addressed for transformations to be successful and socially responsible. We will focus on the challenges related to the planned end of coal mining in the Lausitz region.

More information

Join this Decision Theater© event hosted by the Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology to explore how data-driven models and simulations can inform responses to complex societal challenges. This workshop facilitates stakeholder engagement using interactive modeling and visualization tools developed in collaboration with Arizona State University. Participants will experiment with model-based scenarios in education, water management, and mobility to understand the impact of individual and collective decisions. By visualizing complex systems, the workshop aims to foster creative feedback and enhance decision-making, ensuring policy and behavior changes are evidence-based and effective.
