The SDG pathfinding tools workshop was intended to demonstrate the tools of the French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (IRSTEA) and ours (social simulations), for achieving the goals of the SDG pathfinder project.

For the first part of the workshop, Nils Ferrand presented the approach CoOPLAaGE and its suite of online tools. This was followed by a demonstration of the Online Policy Simulation using MIRO and our tool extension Drag & Drop by Piotr Magnuszewski. After the presentations, the participants commented on the usefulness and challenges of using the tools in the context of the pandemic. The details of how these tools will be used will still be discussed and will rely on the needs of the partners and stakeholders on the ground.
