The purpose of the workshop was to share and discuss scientific methods to integrate decision problems into research. An ambition is to create contact points between BECC/MERGE projects working with multi-criteria decision making and stimulate methodological discussions.

We invited scientists with interest or experience in integrating decision analysis into their research BECC/MERGE associated stakeholders with particular interest in methodological questions
