IEEM and evidence-based investment and public policy design

It is a self-paced course, in which you will find a series of resources and learning activities arranged in a staggered order, from the appropriation of conceptual knowledge to a level of application of the integrated environmental-economic model IEEM, a tool that will allow you to analyze public and investment policies, with an emphasis on natural capital.

Also, there are included, as didactic support, three different models, IEEM and two other simpler ones (simple EGC and mini-IEEM). With the three models, you can analyze different economic scenarios, through a friendly interface called ISIM, to define possible scenarios, calibrate the model, run simulations and interpret results.

The ISIM interface is an Excel add-in that will allow you to interact with the GAMS software to solve the IEEM systems of equations.

The approximate time of dedication to the course is approximately 30 total hours.
