The World Organization for Systems and Cybernetics (WOSC) is an association dedicated to promoting systems thinking and cybernetics globally. Established in 1969, WOSC facilitates communication among individuals and organizations interested in these fields.
WOSC organizes triennial congresses in various regions to enhance local engagement and foster collaboration within the systems and cybernetics communities. These congresses are typically hosted by local institutions such as universities and scientific organizations.
The most recent event, the 19th WOSC Congress held in 2024, focused on "Shaping Collaborative Ecosystems for Tomorrow." It addressed the complexity of global interactions and the role of intelligent tools in reshaping our planet. The congress emphasized the importance of CyberSystemic approaches in developing new capabilities to tackle contemporary challenges. Key themes of the 2024 congress included:
Accepted abstracts from the congress were published in an electronic book of abstracts. Selected full papers are slated for publication in a book by Emerald, with opportunities for inclusion in special issues of scientific journals such as Kybernetes and Systems Research and Behavioral Science.
Overall, WOSC conferences serve as vital platforms for advancing the discourse on systems and cybernetics, fostering collaboration, and addressing the complexities of modern society.
