Virtual Issue is Free Access from 1st of September - 30th of November 2022
To accompany the 2022 Euro HOPE Mini-Conference, the Journal of Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chain Management has selected highly relevant articles that tackle various aspects of humanitarian logistics problems using mathematical modeling and operations research approaches. Thus, a virtual issue on “Optimal solutions to problems in humanitarian logistics” is free to access here until November 30th.
JHLSCM is a methodology-agnostic journal. However, in line with the goals of the Euro HOPE group this free virtual issue focuses on mathematical modeling and operations research approaches to humanitarian logistics problems. It includes answers to very technical problems of healthcare supply chain resilience, refugee camp management, and equitable aid distribution, to the use of mobile technologies in humanitarian operations.
