CLC to participate in "Models for Real World Policy" Conference
This one day conference, organised by the Complexity Science in the Real World Network, is for policy professionals to consider how policy making processes can benefit from new tools and thinking emerging from the study of complex social systems.
The Care Life Cycle Project is one of four projects funded within the Complexity theme. As the projects enter their final phase, this is an opportunity for interaction between academia and policy, building on local, national and international stakeholder engagement that has taken place since the projects started in 2010.
Speakers: These will include Professor Bernard Silverman, Chief Scientific Advisor, Home Office and Alec Waterhouse, Head of Modelling, Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) together with all four project leads, Professor Nigel Gilbert, Sir Alan Wilson, Professor Jane Falkingham and Professor Ed Fieldhouse.
Programme: View the online programme brochure which contains summaries of talks, discussion, poster and speaker bios.
Audience: The event will be of interest to senior professionals involved in researching, analysing, drafting and evaluating policies and advising government. They may be working in Government Departments and Bodies, Civil Service, Think Tanks, NGOs, Charities and other intermediaries. It will be especially relevant to those with a cross-cutting remit helping translate new thinking. Potential stakeholders previously unfamiliar with the projects are particularly welcome.
