❓ How should behavioural factors be considered when measuring accessibility and determining optimal facility locations?

Focus groups will address two active challenges faced by MSF:

❓ How can we maintain access to medical facilities despite uncertainties in travel time and accessibility caused by extreme climate events or conflict?

This workshop will aim to:

▫️ provide insight into the GIS models MSF employs when planning logistics operations

▫️ discuss how these can be used as input for an optimisation model to determine optimal locations for emergency medical facilities

▫️ foster new collaborations

Logistics and operations planning with Médecins Sans Frontières Registration is now open.

🟢 Logistics and operations planning with Médecins Sans Frontières 🟢

This one-day workshop in collaboration with Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), also known as Doctors Without Borders.
