Welcome

... to the Chair of Environmental and Behavioral Economics, represented by Prof. Dr. Astrid Dannenberg. We research and teach in the fields of environmental and behavioral economics. Specifically, we apply methods of behavioral economics to investigate environmentally relevant aspects of human behavior, to better understand the cause of environmental problems, and to develop proposals for their solution.
