About this Simulation

This simulation models the relationship between urban population growth and key global development indicators including GDP per capita, life expectancy, infant mortality rate, and annual CO2 emissions. Learners can explore how urbanisation patterns vary across different regions and examine the complex interactions between economic development, public health, and environmental impact.

Learning objectives: Understand the correlation between urbanisation and socioeconomic development indicators | Analyse the environmental consequences of urban population growth | Evaluate trade-offs between economic growth and sustainability in developing urban centres
