Using the Microsoft OpenAI partnership as an example, participants will examine how such novel partnerships can shape markets, innovation, and society, and how decision makers can make sense of complexity when the stakes are high and information is limited.

[IIASA @IIASAVienna]

As part of the inaugural short course, Elena Rovenskaya, IIASA Advancing Systems Analysis Program Director, will lead a session exploring the systemic effects of strategic partnerships between tech giants and AI pioneers.

[IIASA @IIASAVienna]

Inspired by the legacy of decision science pioneer Howard Raiffa, the Academy brings together researchers, policymakers & practitioners to apply systems thinking to today's most complex global challenges. Through professional development, it helps bridge the gap between science and decision making.

[IIASA @IIASAVienna]

The world's biggest challenges rarely have simple solutions. They demand structured thinking, informed negotiation, and sound decision making. That is the vision behind the Raiffa Academy at IIASA.

[IIASA @IIASAVienna]

What shaped Howard Raiffa's vision? His experience at IIASA. It inspired him to connect decision science with negotiation, diplomacy, and real-world impact. Today, that vision lives on through the Raiffa Academy. #RaiffaAcademy ▶️ https://t.co/J9ALbRH6fR

[IIASA @IIASAVienna]

The Academy's first Short Course launches this July, equipping participants with evidence-based methods for decision-making and negotiation.

❓What would it take to fully phase out fossil fuels by 2050?
⚡A lot more electricity. A new study by Kyoto University, Hokkaido University & IIASA, finds that a full fossil fuel phase-out by mid-century would require global electricity generation to grow 60–80% ▶️ https://t.co/KOj6ZdVzRz

🍫 How can something as simple as a chocolate bar help us interest the next generation in pressing global issues?

🏫 Today students from Keimgasse High School visited IIASA for a learning experience exploring real-world global challenges. Using the journey of a bar of chocolate as an example, IIASA researchers introduced the group to systems thinking and life-cycle analysis.
