The event aims to reflect on how engineering professionals handle complex situations, seeking a balance between technical, economic, social, environmental, and safety criteria in their decision-making.
The conference will combine a reflection session with a round table discussion. In the latter, professionals from various sectors will share their real-world experiences and address the challenges of managing conflicting interests and divergent criteria.
