Fora.ai: Embedding earth systems modeling in a collaborative framework for innovative, impactful and resilient solution-building
Abstract
Fora.ai is an intuitive digital environment that enables groups with diverse expertise to collaboratively interact with embedded simulation models to understand real world socio-environmental problems and create novel and impactful solutions. Participants interact with this digital representation and with each other, iteratively creating, revising and testing solutions until diverse needs are addressed. Workshop participants will use Fora.ai’s interactive game-board to collectively build solutions to environmental hazards (e.g., flooding and wildfires). The virtual environment allows for participation in a facilitated process in which users: 1) input their individual priorities, 2) collaboratively run simulations to understand the complexity of the hazards, 3) co-design solutions to address these problems, 4) see how their solutions affect outputs of interest, and 5) deliberate on the tradeoffs that arise from each solution due to competing priorities. Participants will be introduced to the environmental hazard model and, with facilitator assistance, engage in multiple iterations of the process of prioritization, solution-building, and reflection on results. This process will allow them to refine their proposed solutions towards intervention strategies that they would jointly support for implementation, with an understanding of its benefits and drawbacks. The workshop will end with a focus group debrief. Laptops or tablets required.
