For this final instalment of Academic Morning Coffee before summer break, Saeed Langarudi will share about a recent project from the System Dynamics Group.
Main content
Climate change is expected to exacerbate health disparities, particularly in vulnerable communities. How can we prevent or reduce these disparities? This question lies at the core of a Belmont Forum project recently co-funded by the Research Council of Norway (NFR). Adopting a community-centered approach, the project develops and tests system dynamics models through case studies in the US, Ecuador, Turkey, and Vietnam. Saeed Langarudi (System Dynamics Group, Department of Geography) leads the systems modeling component and serves as a Co-PI on the project.
