#ParticipatoryModelling can:
🔸help integrate diverse range of #perspectives
🔸identify concrete #needs
🔸build #ownership of problems and #consensus on solutions
🔸develop industry relevant solutions
🔸enhance the #legitimacy and #validity of modelling results

Are you wondering what is the role of #EnergyIntensiveIndustries (EIIs) towards a #justtransition and how #participatorymodelling can help to achieve it?

Some facts first:
▪️#EIIs (steel, cement, chemicals..) account for 25% of global emissions
▪️ #EIIs #JustTransition might disproportionally affect #jobs and #local economies
▪️ #Models are reluctant to incorporate key #social #political and #economic aspects

**Recognizing political influences in participatory social-ecological systems modeling**

Participation is not a panacea, and can result in unintended consequences in the modeling process. Scientific models are not "objective" sources of truth - they serve social-political purposes
