Report on methods of systems analysis for studying and forecasting population-environment interactions

摘要

The Asian MetaCentre, headquartered in the Centre for Advanced Studies of the National University of Singapore organised a recent workshop on ‘Methods of Systems Analysis for Studying and Forecasting Population-Environment Interactions’ which was held at the College of Population Studies (CPS), Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok (Thailand), 13-24 November 2000. The topic 'population, development and environment interactions' is a new arena of research and is not well understood, especially for developing countries. This is a real concern to the policy makers and a challenging issue now-a-days.udThis high-level training workshop was led by Warren Sanderson, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), Austria, with tutorial assistance from Molly Hellmuth of IIASA. Altogether 20 (twenty) scholars from various parts of the world were officially registered and participated in the workshop.
