Environmental Economics and Natural Resources Group
The goal of the Environmental Economics and Natural Resources Group (ENR) is to contribute to the construction of a sustainable and circular economy, as well as low-carbon, climate-resilient and biodiversity positive socio-ecological systems. We apply the concepts and principles of environmental and natural resource economics in multidisciplinary teams, attempting to steer production and consumption towards nature safe and just systems.
