Learning to Navigate Complex Socio-Technical Systems
The Summer School on Systems Modelling provides structured education and hands-on training for students, researchers, practitioners, and early-career professionals interested in the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM), systems thinking, and the modelling of complex socio-technical systems.
The programme combines theoretical foundations with practical application. Participants learn how systemic methods can be used to understand everyday work, explore functional interactions, analyse performance variability, and reflect on the conditions that support resilient performance.
Activities may include:
• Foundations of systems thinking and FRAM
• Guided modelling exercises
• Group case studies
• Software tutorials and demonstrations
• Expert and peer feedback
• Interdisciplinary and international collaboration
• Critical comparison of modelling approaches
• Practical application to real-world challenges
• Group presentations and plenary discussions
The specific programme, methods, application cases, and participation conditions may vary between editions.
