===Accommodation===
===Accommodation===
Participants should take care of their own accommodation. The conference will take place in conference rooms that belong to the [[Cyprus University of Technology]] located that the center of the Limassol Old City. Limassol is a culturally rich city that offers visitors and tourists quality and plentifulness of options. Prices in the beginning of May are lower than the hot season. There are many Hotels inside the city and also along the shore for up to 10-15 Km East of the city. There are easy-to-get buses connecting the tourist zones with the centre.

Limassol is a culturally rich city that offers visitors and tourists quality and plentifulness of options. Prices in the beginning of May are lower than during the tourist season. There are many Hotels inside the city and also along the shore for up to 10-15 Km East of the city. There are easy-to-get buses connecting the tourist zones with the centre.  


You may opt for a Hotel close to the City Centre (using the filter in Booking.com) or an apartment even outside the city (much cheaper) to combine business with some vacations. The organisers will try to assign whenever possible Local Assistants to international visitors to help them with their transportation and moving around.

===Financial Support and Student scholarships===
===Financial Support and Student scholarships===
Fees will be used to support students and a small number of visiting scientists and practitioners who need financial support.
All participants will pay fees. The fees will be used towards supporting visiting scientists and practitioners who come from far away and may need some financial support.
 


===Justification of the Need===
===Justification of the Need===
The need for far-reaching social transformations in our world is now widely accepted. All stakeholders also accept the fact that changes can also be implemented using participatory, democratic processes. The [[Structured Dialogic Design Process] is positioned as a powerful tool in this context. The purpose of this very timely symposion in Cyprus is not to revisit the history of the past 40 plus year but to create the history of the future.  The community of practitioners of the science of dialogic design has now expanded to include people from all parts of the world and a variety of languages and cultures.  This dedicated community of scientists will gather for this symposion for a week and will deliberate formally and informally on how to evolve the process and retain its scientific credibility together with its cultural sensitivity.

Furthermore, we recognise the fact that our third millennium world needs new tools that can protect its sustainability and foster up harmony into its evolution. The Symposion will include sessions dedicated to identifying needs, recognising challenges and exploring options for new features and new solutions.
We recognize the fact that our third millennium world needs new methodologies and new tools capable of harnessing the collective wisdom of people from all walks of life in order to protect its sustainability and foster up harmony into its evolution. The event will include sessions dedicated to identifying needs, recognizing challenges and exploring options for new features and new solutions. Each day will include a Keynote Lecture, a Symposion, a Co-Laboratory and a an Evening Lecture all focusing on the same challenge. Some sessions may be parallel offering opportunities for senior members of the Global Agoras to deliberate on their own and to other participants to present and attend a classic-type conference.
 
The Symposion is furthermore very relevant to our present state of the world, since it could convey a possible extension of our SDD practices to include the birth of a Global Observatory. This could be managed by a group of us and give a relevant service to governments and companies and NGO's during the whole 21st century. The Global Observatory  could be providing information of the results of applications of collaborative action plans in different parts of the world, as well as data, and series of data regarding the main variables that we could establish for a follow-up policy by civilians all around the planet. 
 
In sum, no claim is being made abour the superiority of the [[Structured Dialogic Design Process]], even though there is substantial empirical evidence, from more than 1,000 applications in the arena, to this effect when dealing with the management of complexity.  SDDP belongs to the Third Phase of science, and as a consequence it is meant to be complementary to other methodologies originating from First and Second phases of science.

<u> 1. Get to know each other and what everyone is doing</u>
<u> 1. Get to know each other and what everyone is doing</u>
We intend to invite participants to their 5 minutes of fame by making a short, TEDx-style, presentation. The presentation will be videotaped using quality systems. To present, one should submit a video 3 months ahead of time: to ensure that people are truly preparing for such a short, but very rich presentation. At the launch of ever day's program, a few people will be presenting. To support the preparation people will be asked to offer answers to questions like who s/he is, what s/he is doing, interests, dreams etc...
At the launch of ever day's program, five people will be invited to present <i>themselves and their key work</i>. We called it '''Five Minutes of Fame''' because we expect participants to make VERY short, TEDx-style, presentations. The presentations will be videotaped using quality systems. To prepare for the preparation people should be offering answers to questions like who s/he is, what s/he is doing, what are hers/his major interests, vision for the future, the ONE most important message to leave with the group for the theme of the day, etc. To be allowed to present, one should submit a video 3 months ahead of time. This is to ensure that people have truly prepared for such a short, but very rich presentation and not come unprepared.


<u> 2. Define future features of Wisdom harnessing tools </u>
<u> 2. Define future features of collective wisdom harnessing tools </u>
We plan to use the [[Structured Dialogic Design Process]] Methodology to and Cognicope analogous software. An analogous virtual SDDP was organised more than 4 years ago and has driven developments since then. The vision is for a new process to kindle developments for the next 3-4 years using the authentic needs, ideas, and wishes of the community of scientists and practitioners.  
We plan to use the [[Structured Dialogic Design Process]] Methodology and Cognicope analogous software to define requirements and future features of collective wisdom harnessing tools as reflected by practitioners and students of the science. An analogous virtual SDDP was organised more than 4 years ago and has driven developments since then. The vision is for a new process to kindle developments for the next 3-4 years using the authentic needs, ideas, and wishes of the community of scientists and practitioners.  


<u> 3. Scaling-up the dialogue to engage millions</u>
<u> 3. Scaling-up the dialogue to engage thousands or millions</u>
The next frontier. An SDDP on the challenges of scaling up and engaging thousands ormillions is structured democratic dialogue.
The next frontier. An SDDP on the challenges of scaling up and engaging thousands or millions in social change processes adhering to the laws of the science of dialogic design (on present state of realization of the idea of '''Demoscopio''' or Social Planetarium which would give citizens the opportunity to participate in deliberation and implementation of public policies in Crete see http://www.leregardcretois.blogspot.gr/2015/03/blog-post_8.html).


<u> 4. Coordinating and Aligning our Efforts </u>
<u> 4. Coordinating and aligning our efforts </u>
Challenge: How do we coordinate our efforts in organising dozens, if not hundreds, of [[Structured Dialogic Design Process|SDDPs]] around the globe, letting people world wide know about the potentials of [[Science of Dialogic Design|SDD]].

==A Historical Perspective: From the Club of Rome to the Digital Era==
For the last 40 plus years there have been probably more than 1,000 applications of [[Structured Dialogic Design Process|SDDP]] in [[Co-Laboratories of Democracy]] staged in a variety of settings around the world. For example in Cyprus, the location of this Symposion (it is a Greek word meaning drinking together), we have a history of more than 20 years of applications and more than 70 [[Co-Laboratory|Co-Laboratories]]<ref>[[Chronological List of SDDPs by Future Worlds Center and Associates]]</ref> with government agencies, such as the Ministries of Finance, Transportation, Interior, and many others, as well as bi-communal colabs involving Greek and Turkish Cypriots addressing issues of conflict resolution and peace building on the island of Aphrodite.


Evening Lecture: TBA
The first test of the [[Interpretive Structural Modeling]] (ISM) algorithm, developed by [[John N. Warfield|John Warfield]]<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_N._Warfield John Warfield in Wikipedia</ref> in 1971, was conducted by [[Dave Malone]] and [[Aleco Christakis]] on the table top of Warfield’s office at the Battelle Columbus Laboratories in Ohio, USA.  The first application of [[Interpretive Structural Modeling|ISM]] with real people was conducted by Brother Raymond Fitz, who later on became the President of the University of Dayton, with the City Council of Dayton in 1973.  There is a video of this ISM session with the members of the city council deliberating on setting budget priorities for allocating the city revenue.  The first Center for Interactive Management was established by Warfield and Christakis at the University of Virginia in 1982, and was moved to George Mason University in 1984.  The first consultancy employing the Interactive Management methodology, a predecessor of SDD, was established by Christakis in Philadelphia in 1989, and it worked for 25 years with more than 50 clients in government agencies, corporations, foundations, and NGOs.  The Institute for 21st Century Agoras was founded by Dr. [[Ken Bausch]] and [[Aleco Christakis]] in 2002, in preparation for the 2003 International conference of ISSS (www.ISSS.org) in Crete, when Christakis was serving as President of the systems society met Yiannis Laouris for the first time.  Soon there after Laouris established the Future Worlds Center, which emerged as a leader in the evolution of SDD.


The purpose of this timely symposion in Cyprus is not to revisit the history of the past 40 plus years, but to create the history of the future on the foundation of past history.  The community of scientists and practitioners of the [[Dialogic Design Science]] has now expanded to include people from all parts of the world and a variety of languages and cultures.  This dedicated community of scientists will gather for the first time in this symposion for a whole week, and will deliberate formally and informally on how to evolve the process and retain its scientific credibility together with its cultural sensitivity. 


====Day 6 Thursday May 7====
The Framework of their deliberations will be the [[Domain of Science Model]] (DOSM) developed by Warfield and shown graphically [[Domain of Science Model |here]].
