Review Process
Proceedings of Relating Systems Thinking and Design, RSD7 are published online and include papers and presentations, activity sessions, workshops, and systems maps and exhibits.
Papers and presentations were entered into a single-blind peer-review process, meaning reviewers could see the authors’ names but not vice versa. Reviewers considered the quality of the proposed contribution and whether it addressed topics of interest or raised relevant issues in systemic design. The review process provided feedback and possible suggestions for modifications.
The Programme Committee reviewed and assessed workshops, activities, and systems maps and exhibits with input from the Scientific Committee.
