“Food for all” (FFD) is an agent-based model designed to study the evolution of cooperation for food storage. Households face the social dilemma of whether to store food in a corporate stock or to keep it in a private stock. The model is a stylized abstraction of the main factors that we consider to drive the evolution of cooperation in storage:
The efficiency of common and private storage
The underlying learning process through which a successful strategy is reinforced from one generation to the next (modelled as the change in the probability to cooperate)
A social norm controlling access to corporate storage (modelled as the degree of intolerance towards defective behaviour)
The probability of having enough food to satisfy household needs, based on procurement alone (i.e., without considering storage)
