Our social networks are widening, our society is becoming more egalitarian and violent social conflicts are decreasing. What is the connection between these three long-term and persistent trends?

Nanda Wijermans

I am an interdisciplinary researcher working at both the Insittute for Futures Studies and the Stockholm Resilience Centre, Stockholm University.  I am driven by a deep curiosity to understand dynamics At the Institute for Futures Studies, I explore and develop testable explanations concerning the strength of norms under different levels of risk (e.g. climate change, pandemic). My work is highly collaborative and uses modelling also as a ’tool' for a research process in which different researchers, methods, and/or data are combined.

A decentralised, evolvable network of platforms interconnected by open standards, and governed by the scientific community, is technically feasible. However, academic researchers remain tied to traditional journals not least because assessment of merit is tied to the venue of publication. Ways forward can include redirection of funding from legacy publishing models to new infrastructure and the development of new methods to assess scientific contributions. Concerted action by stakeholders needs to be combined with pluralistic experimentation on policies and interventions to further open science practices.

Completed: How do human norms form and change?

Many societies are dominated by norms that are, in the long run, harmful to their members. How can these norms change?

Wicked problem governance

By investigating the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and climate change on the interaction between science, policy and the public, this project aims to solve how public governance can better deal with severe crises in the future.

Employment Discrimination Based on Gender and Ethnicity

The study contributes to knowledge about the process behind gender segregation in the labor market. Segregation may be seen as generated by the combined outcome of decisions located at the supply side

The study explores welfare governance in relation to disadvantaged areas in Sweden. The project aims to contribute with knowledge about how to build trust, promote safety, and break a negative societal development.
