Viennese Talks on Resilience and Networks
Resilience is about the capacity to deal with change and continue to develop. Resilience research is an ascendant paradigm aiming to model and understand the structural features of systems that determine the capability of organisms, ecosystems, societies, enterprises, economies etc to adapt to and shape changes. Network theory provides a robust language to better describe and understand those features.
The series of workshops brings together ecologists, economists, policy makers, sociologists, consultants and social entrepreneurs to exchange perspectives on the value and potential of resilience and network thinking for our highly volatile and unstable world.
