Moira Zellner’s academic background lies at the intersection of Urban and Regional Planning, Environmental Science, and Complexity. Her interdisciplinary projects examine how specific policy, technological and behavioral factors influence the emergence and impacts of complex socio-ecological systems problems, where interaction effects make responsibilities, burdens, and future pathways unclear. She also examines how participatory complex systems modeling with stakeholders and decision-makers support collaborative policy exploration, social learning, and system-wide transformation. Moira has taught workshops on these approaches for scientists and decision-makers in the US and abroad. She is dedicated to serving the public through her engaged research and activism.
