Research Interests:
Behavioural & Experimental Economics, Public Economics, Ethics & Economics
My research focuses on understanding virtuous behaviour and pro-social/pro-environmental preferences at both the individual and collective levels. I examine how these behaviours — such as cooperation, trust, giving, compliance, voluntarism, and contributions to public goods— interact with economic incentives and institutions, and how they shape social capital within communities and organisations.
I have published in international academic journals such as Journal of Public Economics, European Economic Review, Experimental Economics, Environmental & Resource Economics, Journal of Economic Behavior & Organisation, Journal of Business Ethics.
