Season 1 · Episode 2

Monday, August 31, 2020 • Duration 35:40

• Mr. Cornelius Kruger, Research Assistant Consultant and also a member of the IEU’s Behavior and Design Lab, which in short is called the “BaDLab”. Cornelius’s paper ‘Going the Last Mile: Behavior Science and Investments in Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation’ won the Best Paper award at the Climate 2020 Online Conference.

• Ms. Iben Hjorth, IEU’s communications and uptake intern, who recently published a blog titled “Let’s talk about evidence – behavioural insights to help us communicate”.
