The Complex Systems Society (CSS)[1] is an international scientific society of researchers in Complex Systems. The purpose of the Society is to promote the development of all aspects of complex systems science, in relation with the whole international scientific community.
The Society was first launched at a European level on December 7th, 2004 during The European Conference on Complex Systems at the ISI Foundation in Torino, Italy. It became an international society in 2006 during the ECCS06 Conference in Oxford. After the 2014 ECCS14 Conference in Lucca[2][3] , the Society became fully international dropping the "European" name from its flagship conference.
The Society promotes complex systems research (pure and applied), assists and advises on problems of complex systems education, concerns itself with the broader relations of complex systems to society, fosters the interaction between complex systems scientists of different countries, establishes a sense of identity amongst complexity scientists, and represent the complexity community at an international level.
The Society organizes annual flagship conferences (Conference on Complex Systems; CCS) and supports in various ways schools and activities for young researchers with various grants as well as a series of scientific awards at different levels.
The Society is also involved in finding new way of publishing research that could allow to have access to publication also to group with limited resources[4]
The Society is also represented by a series of Local Chapters:
Complexity Digest[9] has been the official news channel of the Society since 2014.
