New research by the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) and IIASA proposes using soil bacteria to cut greenhouse gas emissions from food production.

Urbanization in Africa is accelerating quickly, showing no signs of slowing down. An international team of researchers addresses critical gaps in our understanding of how this urbanization affects local food and ecological systems, emphasizing the importance of recognizing shifts in dietary patterns.

The aim of this model is to provide a unified framework for studying and mitigating the economic and demographic consequences of increasing inequality. The MIWAG model is a rich life-cycle model that allows to trace out how initial heterogeneity is transmitted into unequal behaviours and outcomes over the lifecycle. It can be used for studying how different policies lead to different dynamics over the life-cycle and how this affects intra-generational inequality. Moreover, this life-cycle model can be implemented in an overlapping generations framework, which also allows studying how inequality evolves across cohorts (inter-generational inequality).
