Date: 19th February

Venue: Zoom
A Paralimes Webinar Series: Season One
Can we make sense of real-world complexity?
Building on conversations initiated by Paralimes, Season One of our Webinar Series: Complexity, Science, and Reality is launching; a set of live, monthly, 90-minute online sessions that bring together leading thinkers on complexity, science, and how to relate that to the reality of our messy world.
The Format
Each webinar follows a simple structure:
- 45-minute presentation
A focused talk by a guest speaker on a selected theme dealing with real-world complexity - 45-minute open Q&A
A conversation facilitated by a moderator, drawing on audience questions, reflections, and provocations.
What You’ll Experience
- Explorations how the complexity of the real world may require a different approach to science
- Presentations that are rigorous yet accessible to any curious researcher, practitioner, or interdisciplinary thinker
- Thoughtful Q&A sessions that connect ideas across fields and open pathways into subsequent episodes
- A space for inquiry, where questions matter as much as answers
Who This Is For
This series welcomes:
- Researchers and scientists across disciplines,
- students and early-career scholars,
- practitioners (industry and government) dealing with real-world complexity
- and anyone who wants to think deeply about how the world works, and how it doesn’t.
No specialised expertise is required. Curiosity is enough.

This month on the Paralimes Webinar Series
We are delighted to welcome Atsushi Iriki for this month’s episode of Complexity, Science, and Reality, on 19th February.
In this session, Atsushi will explore how our reality is not shaped by a singular linear event but by many plausible paths. This webinar will be facilitated by our moderator Sander Van Der Leeuw.
Live Webinar: 19th February 16:00-17:30 GMT+1
As always, the session includes a 45-minute presentation followed by a 45-minute open Q&A. We invite you to join the conversation, bring your questions, and help us continue building a thoughtful community around complexity science.
