Wisteria
On a Budget

To Do
The goal here is to explore what happens when aid ends, thus what kinds of aid make an enduring change for the better. Tasks:

  1. Find the Aid Package that yields the lowest death toll. Is it the same one as for the Wisteria Introduction where aid never ended?
  2. What kinds of aid make the long term situation worse than if the country never received any aid?
  3. Optional : Using your best aid package, try turning capacity effects on. Do your conclusions change?

Discussion
Please see the Wisteria Intro Scenario page for a description of Wisteria itself.

Wisteria Budget differs from Wisteria Intro in that aid stops when you meet or exceed 80 aid points spent. At the recommended 8 points per year, this is 50 years of aid, followed by 30 years of no aid, for the basic 80-year projection.
