Description

New methods in network economics to study environment-friendly behaviours. This project aims to develop two new methodologies for measuring how people interact with each other and how one’s peers affect their outcomes. The project expects to test these new ground-breaking models for investigating the effect of peers and networks on environmental issues, such as recycling behaviours. The anticipated outcomes of this project include new theoretical and empirical advancements for studying the economics of networks and peers for better policy design. Benefits include clear policy recommendations to motivate environment-friendly behaviours. . Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 3803 - Economic Theory. Lead: Prof Yves Zenou
