HOW SYSTEMS ANALYSIS HELPED MY CAREER
South African scholar Elvis M. Nkoana won his SA-YSSP scholarship for research
on “Impacts of Environmental Education on Perceptions of Climate Change
Risks in Rural and Township Communities in Limpopo Province, South Africa.”
He tells Options: “Participation in the SA-YSSP and taking up a short-term
vacancy at IIASA accelerated the completion of my doctoral degree with the
University of Antwerp in Belgium. The topic of “climate change adaptation”
features much systems analysis and holistic/whole-systems thinking. My
participation in the SA-YSSP and IIASA has instilled a systems approach in my
professional career. Having both on my CV will bring benefits.”
In 2015, South Africa stepped up its commitment to systems analysis
by creating the Southern African Systems Analysis Centre–SASAC.
Led by a consortium of four universities–the universities of the
Western Cape, Limpopo, the Witwatersrand, and Stellenbosch–
SASAC aims to strengthen systems analysis activities by supporting
Honours students, PhD students, and postdoctoral researchers.
