SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY
Modelling Methodologies such as System Dynamics have been used to model complex feedback systems such a the
physical environment, ecological systems and social systems, however this modelling is only conceptual and lacks
information on real world physical constraints. EnGen Institute’s systemic modelling of Total Sustainability
includes knowledge of the underlying processes of both biological and technological developmental systems. This
detail takes time and effort to acquire but allows fact based decision making and design for sustainability.

Systemic models are based on
open/closed nested cellular units
Society’s interaction with nature
and the environment is driven by
our needs and demand translated
into products and manufacturing
processes - our basis of modelling
