Bring your lunch and your thoughts, and join our complexity discussion!

Through models of mentorship and faciliation we are looking to continue our emergent conversation(s) utilizing the framework of systems and complexity thinking, as we work to create a commond language and shared experience of community - the purpose of which is the very process itself.

WICI Virtual Book Club: The Ministry for the Future

Thursday April 13th at 12 p.m. (Register in advance via Eventbrite)

Hosted by the Waterloo Institute for Complexity and Innovation and Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences

In "The Ministry for the Future", author Kim Stanley Robinson paints a dystopian, yet ultimately hopeful picture of our planet's next century. In this hybrid fiction/non-fiction book, Robinson hypothesizes how a combination of novel policies and major societal changes might allow humans, and the planet that houses us, to emerge positively from the climate crisis.

We invite readers to share in a discussion of Robinson's proposed resolutions to the climate crises, viewed through a complex systems lens, in advance of the upcoming WICI/Fields "Mathematics for Complex Climate Challenges" workshop which will run May 1st - 4th at the University of Waterloo.

The Waterloo Institute for Complexity and Innovation (WICI) is partnering with the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences to organize a 4-day workshop, “Math for Complex Climate Challenges” at the University of Waterloo, from May 1 - 4^th, 2023.
