Systems Dynamics is a methodology used to understand the behavior of complex systems over time. It is based on the idea that the structure of a system, and the interactions between its components, determine its behavior. Systems Dynamics models are typically used to simulate the behavior of systems and to explore different scenarios. This can help decision-makers to understand the potential impact of different policies and interventions.
