Hi!
My name is Elisabeth Gsottbauer. I am environmental economics focused on evaluating and designing policy instruments and interventions to promote sustainable behavior.
I am a Professor and Director of the Centre for Sustainability at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano and a Senior Fellow at LSE’s Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change. I hold Research Fellow positions at the Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy and Natural Resource Governance (C-EENRG), Department of Land Economy at the University of Cambridge (UK) and the University of Innsbruck.
Beyond that, I am interested in effectively communicating research findings, including through visual formats (see hosted exhibition Visualizing Klimawandel). And I deeply enjoy outdoor sports in the mountains and at sea.
