      abstract = {This book presents contributions to the 50th Annual  Conference of the Operations Research Society of South  Africa (ORSSA), which was jointly hosted with the African  Federation of Operations Research Societies (AFROS) at  North-West University in Potchefstroom, South Africa from  12 to 15 September, 2021. Focusing on innovative case  studies and recent applications of Operations Research  models and algorithms in African countries, each chapter  highlights findings emerging from the countries in question  and explains the lessons learned. As such, the book offers  an up-to-date overview of Operations Research practices and  developments in Africa. AFROS is a "not for profit"  organization that aims to promote Operations Research in  Africa. Its affairs are regulated by an Executive Committee  consisting of representatives/alternates of all its member  societies. The members of the Federation undertake to  co-operate in the advancement of knowledge, interest and  education in Operations Research by appropriate means,  particularly the exchange of information, the holding of  meetings and conferences, and the awarding of prizes.},
