If you’re in Geneva, join us this Friday for a presentation on our project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

System dynamics modeling is one of the main innovations of our project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). With our partners, we are working to improve resilience of people affected by repeated displacement. The project also includes original field research and eventually pilot projects. We are building models to understand all the ways multiple displacement affects communities so that humanitarian and development interventions can make a greater impact.

**Join us for a briefing and discussion on this project on Friday, January 23, 2015 in Geneva. **

• Who: You are invited to a presentation by project partners Climate Interactive, Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC), and International Alert

• What: Briefing and discussion on three-year research project: Increasing resilience of people affected by multiple displacement in eastern DRC.

• When: Friday, January 23, 2015 from 10 am to 11:30 am

• Where: International Environment House 2, Room Rhin, 7 Chemin de Balexert in Châtelaine (Geneva)

• **Why: **The aim of this project, which is funded with UK aid from the British people, is to reach a common understanding of vulnerability in the context of protracted and multiple displacement in eastern DRC. It also has the objective of informing humanitarian practice and programming to strengthen the resilience of people affected.
