About this Simulation

This interactive simulation models how urban population growth interconnects with economic development, environmental impact, and social outcomes. Learners adjust variables such as population size, GDP per capita, and CO2 emissions to observe real-world relationships between urbanisation and health indicators like life expectancy and infant mortality rates.

Learning objectives: Understand correlations between urbanisation and socioeconomic development | Analyse the environmental and health impacts of population growth | Explore sustainable development trade-offs in urban contexts
