Set-up of the SOUTHMOD project
• Jointly undertaking with the EUROMOD team, SASPRI (Cape Town)
and KU Leuven
• EUROMOD
– Both a microsimulation model for European countries, and
– a software for building new microsimulation models.
• UNU-WIDER, SASPRI, EUROMOD and KU Leuven (senior project
partners)
– build models together with local team in each country (models freely
available for non-commercial use), and
– educate local stakeholders to use the model:
a) Government and its agencies,
b) Researchers
Building on EUROMOD success
• EUROMOD is a result of 20 years of investment into tax-
benefit microsimulation
• A large user group, annual activities, presence in conferences
• SOUTHMOD benefits from all this experience
• But, more importantly, will facilitate interaction and learning
within a community of experts from developing countries
• Annual SOUTHMOD workshops
• Research activities aim to improve the ’fit’ of the models to
developing countries’ circumstances
Features of the SOUTHMOD approach
• Easy-to-use user interface
• Models available free of charge for non-commercial
research
• Models extensively documented
– Country report
– Variable lists
– Extensive help files within the software
• Simulation results can be analyzed within or outside the
model
SOUTHMOD: The way ahead
• Models, including VNMOD maintainance
– New policy rules coded annually
– Whenever new data become available, the underpinning
data set is updated
– Documentation revised, new versions are made available
– Annual training events
• Research using models undertaken and encouraged
• Use of the models in policy analysis highly valued
and supported by UNU-WIDER
Some of examples of the type of work
that can be conducted using SOUTHMOD
• ’Basic’ policy analysis within ministries
– Preparing price tags for policy reforms
• Examining the impacts of larger social policy reforms
– E.g. providing greater old-age benefits financed by
different means, including a possible increase in the VAT
rate
• Preparing more timely poverty estimates –
’nowcasting/flash estimates’
• Combining micro/macro models
ENJOY USING VNMOD!

  • 5. Set-up of the SOUTHMOD project • Jointly undertaking with the EUROMOD team, SASPRI (Cape Town) and KU Leuven • EUROMOD – Both a microsimulation model for European countries, and – a software for building new microsimulation models. • UNU-WIDER, SASPRI, EUROMOD and KU Leuven (senior project partners) – build models together with local team in each country (models freely available for non-commercial use), and – educate local stakeholders to use the model: a) Government and its agencies, b) Researchers
  • 6. Building on EUROMOD success • EUROMOD is a result of 20 years of investment into tax- benefit microsimulation • A large user group, annual activities, presence in conferences • SOUTHMOD benefits from all this experience • But, more importantly, will facilitate interaction and learning within a community of experts from developing countries • Annual SOUTHMOD workshops • Research activities aim to improve the ’fit’ of the models to developing countries’ circumstances
  • 7. Features of the SOUTHMOD approach • Easy-to-use user interface • Models available free of charge for non-commercial research • Models extensively documented – Country report – Variable lists – Extensive help files within the software • Simulation results can be analyzed within or outside the model
  • 8. SOUTHMOD: The way ahead • Models, including VNMOD maintainance – New policy rules coded annually – Whenever new data become available, the underpinning data set is updated – Documentation revised, new versions are made available – Annual training events • Research using models undertaken and encouraged • Use of the models in policy analysis highly valued and supported by UNU-WIDER
  • 9. Some of examples of the type of work that can be conducted using SOUTHMOD • ’Basic’ policy analysis within ministries – Preparing price tags for policy reforms • Examining the impacts of larger social policy reforms – E.g. providing greater old-age benefits financed by different means, including a possible increase in the VAT rate • Preparing more timely poverty estimates – ’nowcasting/flash estimates’ • Combining micro/macro models
