Fwd: systemic approaches

Greetings good peoples

As you may know, one of my research interests is 'systemic approaches',
below a CFP I am thinking of submnitting to
I met Gerhard at ISSS Hull where I presented a paper, and I thought we
should integrate that approach into EIIF efforts

Please let me know if yourselves, or anyone you may know, could be
interested to collaborate on a paper,

Cheers

PDM

   Dear Colleagues!

   Awareness of threats and the occurrence of actual disasters (many
   caused by nature but often triggered by human activities) have become
   more acute during the last decades, endangering a growing number of
   persons and areas in many different ways.
   In order to cope with these threats we need a systemic approach to both
   the analysis of potential disasters in a all their ramifications and
   appropriate reaction strategies for actual disasters.

   Following the successful workshops at ISSS 2009, 2010 and 2011 we will
   organize a symposium on
   “Systemic Approaches to Regional Disasters”, as part of the
   European Meeting on Cybernetics and Systems Research (EMCSR 2012), from
   April 10 – 13, 2012 at the Vienna University.

   We invite you submit an EXTENDED ABSTRACT (1 – 3 pages) together with
   a quarter page CV (per author) for this Symposium C discussing one
   or more aspects of this highly relevant topic.
   You find a more elaborate description of the intended Symposium C
   attached and on http://www.emcsr.net/?page_id=180 .
   Deadline for the submission is January 14, 2012.

   Please note that the extended abstract and CV have to be submitted via
   the conference system accessible via
   http://www.emcsr-conference.org/2012/about/submissions#onlineSubmissions
