Policy decisions must be transparently informed by evidence. Simulation models are increasingly used for supporting the policy-making process and analysing the impact of policy options in areas such as pandemic response, climate change and healthcare. So, ensuring models are open to scrutiny by policymakers, researchers and the public is essential to creating public trust.
Models must always be interpreted within their defined purpose and scope. This leaflet provides questions that will help assess whether a certain model is the right tool to answer the policy question and to interpret the results correctly.
