I was very glad to present preliminary results from the REACH Project at the XXVI Congresso Brasileiro de Economia (26th National Conference in Economics), held in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. This state has been severely affected by flooding in 2024, with 70% of its municipalities affected.

Our longer-term goal is to develop a robust hybrid model that leverages the strengths of different modelling approaches (system dynamics and agent-based) to capture both demand and supply of maternal and child health services during floods and heatwaves.

The model is built around state charts #tracking women through #pregnancy (antenatal clinic visits and deliveries) and #vaccination of infants. #Next steps include #tailoring the model to #Zambia and #Brazil using #real data and #stakeholder input.
