This CD-ROM/Web site contains preliminary results of three research projects on long-term population, development, and environment interactions carried out by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in collaboration with the Botswana Ministry of Finance and Development Planning, the University of Namibia (UNAM), and the Mozambique National Institute of Statistics (INE). The project was funded by the European Commission, DG VIII-Directorate-General for Development (Contract No. B7-6200/96-18/VIII/ENV).

All results presented here are based on detailed computer simulation models calibrated to data from the 1990s. These models were created so as to stay close to the data and to integrate the most important features of population, development, and the environment.
