EURO Working Group on Behavioural O.R.

Spring Workshop 2022

11-12th April 2022

Special theme: BOR contributions to the Energy Transition

Department of Mathematics - University of Coimbra, Portugal

This workshop of the EURO Working Group on Behavioural O.R., to be held in Coimbra next Spring, aims at bringing together researchers, students and practitioners to share recent research, new developments and best practices on the special theme of behavioural OR contributions to the energy transition, as well as providing guidance for developing effective behavioural OR-supported interventions in a vast range of domains.

The programme includes keynote lectures from experts from academia and industry, practical sessions, short presentations by participants, and discussions. Topics range from state-of-the-art methods and applications, including multidisciplinary approaches, modelling and decision support tools. Although the energy transition is the special theme in this workshop, we encourage participants working in all fields to submit their work. General BOR submissions are also welcome.

A two-day in-person workshop is envisaged. Recommendations of the Health Authority will be followed at all times.

We look forward to an enriching workshop in Coimbra!
