The fourth International Symposium on Decision Science for Future Earth was successfully convened at Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan on August 1, 2019. It is another successful symposium since the launch of the “Decision Science for Future Earth” project at the Institute of Decision Science for a Sustainable Society (IDS3) at Kyushu University in 2016.
