18 December 2024The first IRN (International Research Network) QARESS Symposium has been held in Montpellier on December 2-3, 2024. It has been hosted by the MSHSUD in downtown Montpellier and mainly organized by the CEE-M (Center of Environmental Economics in Montpellier) with the financial support of both the CNRS and INRAE. The IRN QARESS Symposium #2024 brought together scientists from various countries (Germany, The Netherlands, Cameroon, Canada, Australia and France) and various disciplines (Economics, Ecology, Decision Sciences, Modeling) interested in the `QuAntitative Resilience-based managEment and Sustainability for Social-ecological Systems’ (QARESS). This international and interdisciplinary Symposium QARESS has been the opportunity to:
- Reinforce the common knowledge and ideas within this new International Research Network (IRN) funded by CNRS over five years,
- Draft international and interdisciplinary scientific papers and/or proposals to upcoming international calls (Belmont Forum, H2020, OECD, …),
- Expand the QARESS interdisciplinary network about resilience-based management at the Montpellier scale.
Find below the program of the Symposium along with the slides of the different presentations and speakers.
This first IRN QARESS Symposium is a first step towards the future activities of the IRN QARESS until 2028 including the writing of common perpective papers, the organization of the Symposium#2025, as well as the creation of a website.
