The Integrated Assessment Society (TIAS) is a not-for-profit-entity created to promote the community of inter-disciplinary and disciplinary scientists, analysts and practitioners who develop and use integrated assessment. The goals of the society are to nurture this community, to promote the development of IA and to encourage its wise application.

TIAS defines Integrated assessment (IA) as the scientific “meta-discipline” that integrates knowledge about a problem domain and makes it available for societal learning and decision-making processes. Scientific and stakeholder knowledge is drawn from many disciplines and a wide range of methods are applied.
IA plays an important role in environmental management by providing integrated knowledge management tools and processes for addressing complex environmental problems, and for promoting transformations towards sustainable development.
In the first week of October 2022, TIAS and PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency hosted a hybrid seminar for practitioners of Integrated Environment Assessment (IEA). The focus was on emerging approaches in IEA work that seem productive in the post-truth society. A synthesis of the proceedings including recommendations as well keynote videos are now available from the PBL site. Keynotes addressed the changing context of knowledge contestation in Europe and Brazil. In particular, quantitative models and their role in IEA were discussed including their grand challenges, regulatory demands, mobilizing the arts and other themes.
