The current version of FeliX includes the following main extensions:
- an aggregate wellbeing measure, Years of Good Life
- age- and gender-dependent poverty rates
- age- and gender-dependent life expectancy and healthy life expectancy
- climate impacts on economic output (GDP) and human mortality
These updates are documented in Eker et al.(2023). This version is used in Chapter 5 of the IIASA Flagship Report and Eker et al. (under review) Wellbeing Cost of Carbon.
The model reads inputs from the excel files you see in this folder, hence they must be placed in the same directory as the model file.
