Aging & Social Change: Fifteenth Interdisciplinary Conference is a forum for discussion of challenges and opportunities for a rapidly growing segment of the population worldwide. The process of aging is a concern for individuals, families, communities, and nations. The social context of aging provides a rich background for community dialogue on this, one of the critical questions of our time. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.

OECD Nuclear Energy Agency

The NEA Stakeholder Involvement Workshops (SIWS) are known for fostering active dialogue and collaboration amongst diverse stakeholders. The NEA recognises the importance of continuing its work on stakeholder involvement, which is a key topic, as outlined in its Strategic Plan 2023-2028, in this regard, setting the stage for the fourth edition of the NEA SIWS. With the establishment of the NEA High-Level Group on Stakeholder Engagement, Trust, Transparency and Social Sciences (HLG-SET), which was launched to engage at the senior policy level and cultivate a deeper understanding of the relations between the nuclear sector and civil society, there is an opportunity to maintain momentum and foster collaboration across a diverse group of stakeholders. Synergies between the expertise and knowledge of these two groups will be essential in organising the fourth edition of the workshop.

Following the success of the fourth edition of the Nuclear Risk Communication Training Course (RCTC), the NEA will host the 2025 edition in Bucharest, Romania, in partnership with the National Commission for Nuclear Activities Control (CNCAN) and the Nuclear Agency for Radioactive Waste (ANDR) from 17 to 20 November 2025. An optional site tour will take place on 21 November 2025. This training course will focus on communicating risk in day-to-day contexts, aiming to improve the effectiveness of risk communication and enhancing public understanding related to nuclear and radiological risk. Over the course of four days, participants will engage with communication experts and technical professionals from nuclear energy organisations to learn the fundamentals of risk communication.

Banff International Research Station for Mathematical Innovation and Discovery (BIRS)

This workshop explores problems in mathematical political science, focusing on recent developments in the study of alternative voting methods and the creation of district electoral maps. Over the last 20 years, many jurisdictions in Canada and the United States have adopted or have considered adopting alternative voting methods such as ranked-choice voting for electing mayors, representatives, city council members, etc. There are many questions about such methods which can be analyzed mathematically. For example, does ranked-choice voting tend to elect candidates who are more centrist than candidates elected by more commonly-used methods like plurality? How can we best achieve proportional representation on a legislative body? What makes an election fair? There are many open problems around such questions, and this workshop hopes to make some progress on them using mathematical tools.

Twenty-First International Conference on the Arts in Society, Department of Theatre Studies, School of Philosophy, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece,, 10-12 June 2026. Founded in 2000, the Arts in Society Research Network offers an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of the role of the arts in society. It is a place for critical engagement, examination, and experimentation, developing ideas that connect the arts to their contexts in the world – on stage, in studios and theaters, in classrooms, in museums and galleries, on the streets and in communities. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.
