Featured event: Learning across domains about uncertainty
Resources from the STEPS Centre’s international symposium in July 2019, The Politics of Uncertainty: Practical Challenges for Transformative Action, reveal insights on uncertainty across a number of domains. The PASTRES project was involved in designing the event. Videos, podcasts, a blog series and abstracts from the symposium are available to download on the event page.
