Ronja Hotz is a PhD student in the Land Use Change & Climate Research Group at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, where she has been working since August 2023. Her research focuses on understanding and modelling the social processes underlying land use change using agent-based modelling, with a particular emphasis on the CRAFTY framework. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Physics from Freie Universität Berlin and a Master’s degree in Theoretical Physics from Technische Universität Berlin.
Prior to her PhD, she worked at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, where she implemented a generic decision-making layer for land managers in agent-based socio-ecological models. The framework was analysed in a stylised model to investigate emergent dynamics and critical transitions and was subsequently integrated into the InSEEDS model, which simulates the adoption of conservation agriculture at regional to global scales.
Agent-based modelling; socio-ecological systems; land use change; human decision-making and behaviour; social norms and learning; spreading processes on complex networks; critical transitions and social tipping dynamics for sustainability transformations.

learning and geospatial data to perform risk assessment, suitability analysis, and forecasting using large-
scale datasets such as satellite imagery, climate variables, and land-use data.
• Spatial Data Engineering & Processing: Strong ability to manage and preprocess complex geospatial
datasets, including raster and vector data, DEMs, remote sensing products, and climate projections, with
rigorous attention to spatial reference systems, accuracy, and data quality control.

including cloud masking, spectral analysis, vegetation indices, land cover classification, and temporal
change detection using Google Earth Engine and Python.
• Geospatial Visualization & Cartography: Skilled in producing professional-grade thematic maps, spa-
tial dashboards, and web-based geovisualizations to communicate complex geospatial patterns to both
technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration: Experienced working with multidisciplinary teams across academia,
government, and industry to deliver geospatial solutions for planning, environmental risk assessment, and
policy-driven decision-making.
I am a computational social-ecological systems researcher working at the intersection of biodiversity science, complexity science, and public policy. My research integrates ecological data, computational modeling, machine learning, network analysis, and policy analytics to understand how interactions among biodiversity, society, and institutions shape the dynamics of social-ecological systems. Through interdisciplinary approaches, I aim to generate evidence that supports sustainability, conservation, and adaptive decision-making.
My research focuses on the computational study of social-ecological systems. I am interested in agent-based modeling, complex networks, resilience, adaptive governance, biodiversity monitoring, and computational policy analysis. I use methods from complexity science, machine learning, and systems modeling to investigate how ecological, social, and institutional processes interact and generate emergent sustainability outcomes.
Mario Ureta holds a BSc in Economics from Birkbeck, University of London, a Graduate Diploma in Data Science from the London School of Economics, and an MSc in Data Science and Analytics from Brunel University London. He is currently a PhD student in Computing Science at Birkbeck, University of London. His research focuses on the economic study of individual preferences and decision-making, and on the use of agent-based models as a bridge between economic theory and computational experimentation. Through economic simulation, his work examines how heterogeneous preferences, social interaction, and firm behaviour jointly shape aggregate market outcomes, including non-linear dynamics and tipping points.
My research interests centre on the study of individual preferences in economics and on understanding how preferences evolve through interaction, learning, and social context. I am particularly interested in how seemingly weak or latent preferences—such as attitudes toward environmental attributes, prices, or social norms—can become amplified through feedback mechanisms and generate non-linear aggregate outcomes. A core methodological focus of my work is the use of agent-based modelling and economic simulation as a bridge between economic theory and experimentation. By treating agent-based models as computational laboratories, I explore how heterogeneous preferences, habit formation, peer influence, and firm behaviour interact dynamically, allowing theoretical mechanisms to be tested, stress-tested, and compared under controlled but flexible conditions that are difficult to achieve using purely analytical or empirical approaches.

At present, I am full professor in Management at Sorbonne Paris Nord University. Also, I am the Editor-in-Chief of the European Review of Service Economics and Management. Over the past, I have been assistant professor in Economics at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University in China (2013-2017) and associate professor in economics at the University of Lille, France (2017-2023).
Ifigeneia Koutiva (female) is a senior environmental engineer, holding a PhD in Civil Engineering (NTUA), a Postgrad Diploma in Water Resources and Environmental Management (Un. of Belgrade - e-learning), an MSc in Environmental Technology (Imperial College London) and an MSc in Mining and Metallurgy Engineering (NTUA). Her PhD was funded by the Greek Ministry of Education through Heracleitous II scholarship. She is currently a postdoctoral scholar of the State Scholarship Foundation (IKY) for 2020 - 2021. She has 10 years of experience in various EU funded research projects, both as a researcher and as a project manager, in the fields of socio-technical simulation, urban water modelling, modelling and assessment of alternative water technologies, artificial intelligence, social quantitative research, KPI and water indicators development and assessment and analysis of large data sets. She is very competent with programming for creating ICT tools for agent based modelling and data analysis tools and she is an experienced user of spatial analysis software and tools. She is also actively involved in the design and implementation of numerous consultation workshops and conferences. She has authored more than 20 scientific journal articles, conferences articles and research reports.
My research interests lay within the interface of social, water and modelling sciences. I have created tools that explore the effects of water demand management policies in domestic urban water demand behaviour and the effects of civil decision making in flood risk management. I am interested in agent based modelling, artificial intelligence techniques, the creation of ABM tools for civil society, Circular Economy, distributed water technologies and overall urban water management.

Study and champion - “Hodges’ Health Career - Care Domains - Model” a generic conceptual framework for health and education.
‘Health career’ refers to ‘life chances’.
The care domains relate to academic subjects - knowledge and are:
SCIENCES
INTRA- INTERPERSONAL
SOCIOLOGY
POLITICAL

A new website remains an aspiration - using Drupal, Pharo..?
Developing ideas on Hodges’ model (not Wilfred btw) when viewed as a mathematical object, using category theory as a ‘non-mathematician’.
Work part-time still in the community in NW England.

Hi. I’m Wolf. I’m the Argelander (Tenure-Track Assistant) Professor for Integrated System Modeling for Sustainability Transitions at the University of Bonn, Germany.
We reshape human-environment modeling to identify critical leverage points for sustainability transitions.
Cooperation at scale – in which large collectives of intelligent actors in complex environments seek ways to improve their joint well-being – is critical for a sustainable future, yet unresolved.
To move forward with this challenge, we develop a mathematical framework of collective learning, bridging ideas from complex systems science, multi-agent reinforcement learning, and social-ecological resilience.
