Decision Theater: Water Scarcity Phoenix and Berlin

Water Scarcity is a defining feature of many areas. It has been especially prominent in the American Southwest. However, the Berlin-Brandenburg area will soon face similar challenges. This event will showcase some tools that have been developed by ASU’s Decision Theater to support public deliberations and decision making under conditions of water scarcity.

Join this Decision Theater© event hosted by the Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology to explore how data-driven models and simulations can inform responses to complex societal challenges. This workshop facilitates stakeholder engagement using interactive modeling and visualization tools developed in collaboration with Arizona State University. Participants will experiment with model-based scenarios in education, water management, and mobility to understand the impact of individual and collective decisions. By visualizing complex systems, the workshop aims to foster creative feedback and enhance decision-making, ensuring policy and behavior changes are evidence-based and effective.
