Agent-Based Simulation of Forced Displacement | Advanced Disaster, Emergency and Rapid Response Simulation (ADERSIM)

As part of:

Building Bridges across Social and Computational Sciences: Using Big Data to Inform Humanitarian Policy and Interventions

As part of the bigger project, this project aims to develop an agent-based simulation application for forced displacement caused by various factors such as conflicts, natural hazards, climate change, etc..
