Portal:Complex Systems Digital Campus/CS-DC Socio-Environmental Ecosystem

The role of the committee is the long term CS-DC commitment towards the Worldwide Knowledge Society by promoting complex systems research and education. Its main contribution is both integrated knowledge and integrated models. The CS-DC will also promote the use of complex systems science by societal actors in the public and private sectors. CS-DC has the duty to design the best possible integrated knowledge and integrated models that will be used by societal actors to ground their strategies for the best possible environmental and societal impact, considering their multicultural approaches of Ethics.

The objectives of the Committee are to:

• contribute to the aims of global development by taking into account its social, economic and cultural dimensions and to this end, make the science and engineering of complex systems accessible to all, in order to get the relations between science, engineering, politics and ethics to evolve towards a sustainable development,

$promote the development of integrated knowledge and integrated models of complex systems in order to bridge the gap between science and engineering,

• contribute to develop open science by involving citizens with their sensing, computing and thinking resources towards ubiquitous observing, learning and computing.

In order to achieve these objectives, the commitments are to:

• implement long term agreements with societal actors at all levels for co-designing the best possible protocols of multi-modal and multi-scale observations in natura and their phenomenological interpretation and for sharing the resulting big data bases
• implement the co-design by scientists and societal actors of governance, prevention and resilience protocols using the best possible integrated models as attested by international contests of models (ad done through the Organizational Ecosystem Committee)
• implement the societal committees having the responsibility of advising the above virtuous cycle that goes from the multi-scale data to the best multilevel model and go back from the multi-level models to new multi-scale data coming from new protocols.
