"Sustainability assessments using input-output tables"　Arunima Malik

Abstract:
Multi-regional input-output databases have been used for a range of environmental, social and economic assessments. In this talk, Arunima Malik from the University of Sydney will provide an overview of the methodologies used by her group for supply chain sustainability assessments to quantify impacts embodied in supply chains. She will present the Industrial Ecology Virtual Laboratory infrastructure developed at the University of Sydney, in collaboration with seven Australian universities, and show how this platform has transformed research in supply chain sustainability assessments. Her presentation will focus on assessments of health system and spillover effects.
