Workshop on Energy and Ecological Transition
Sala de graus. Faculty of Business and Economics. Reus
The Research Project SPECTRUM is based on the social perception of the ecologica transition, by making a comprehensive analysis of the interactions between the socioeconomic and communicative factors and people's opinion of the ecological issues at the regional level. The research is designed to capture the socio-economic determinants and the communication strategies that drive the people's view of environment and its territorial specificities in Spain, to derive policy measures to successfully reach a green economy in the horizon 2050. It combines techniques of sociology, economy, communication and computing to favor citizen's empowerment and citizens' active participation in the Spanish ecological pathway to a green economy. The research takes an inter-disciplinary methodology that integrates regional surveys to identify people's perception, macroeconomic models of economic impact analysis, microeconometric models, communication tools (Content Discourse Analysis) and computing techniques to follow a gradual design of policy mechanisms able to facilitate the Spanish ecological transition.

4th ECO-SOS Workshop on Economics and Sustainability, 26-27 September 2024
From to
Aula Magna. Faculty of Business and Economics
The Research Center on Economics and Sustainability (ECO-SOS) was originally created in 2010 as CREIP (Research Center in Industrial and Public Economics), and recently moved to sustainability issues, in line with the research interests of its members. Specifically, ECO-SOS studies the connection between sustainability and the following areas of interest: environmental and climate economics, health economics, regional and urban economics, education and labor market, business and innovation, energy and natural resources, industrial organization, economic policy, game theory and environmental conflicts, transport and tourism.
Workshop objectives
This workshop provides an opportunity to all those interested in the interaction between sustainability and gender and, in general terms, to address global challenges faced by our economies when designing growth strategies. In this sense, we want to analyze the gender implications of economic activities, quantify their externalities and provide proposals to achieve more sustainable growth scenarios.
Researchers are encouraged to submit both empirical and theoretical papers that are broadly consistent with the ECO-SOS areas of interest. We particulalry welcome papers related to the following topics, in addition to the main topic of Gender Challenges
