The EfD Coordination Committee, headed by EfD Director Gunnar Köhlin, welcomes as a new EfD Partner the Chilean research center Research Nucleus on Environmental and Natural Resource Economics at the Department of Economics, University of Concepcion.
“We are proud to become partners of the EfD family, and plan to work hard to increase and improve our research efforts in partnerships with the EfD Centers. On behalf of my colleagues, who collaborate as researchers in our Nucleus, I would like to thank the EfD Coordination Committee for accepting us an EfD partner, says Carlos Chavez, Director of the Research Nucleus on Environmental and Natural Resource Economics, Department of Economics, University of Concepcion.
“We are very happy to include Concepcion as an EfD partner. Concepcion has a very strong group of environmental economists and the best graduate program in environmental and resource economics in Latin America. We are excited about the prospects of synergies between the Concepcion Nucleus and our EfD centers,” says Gunnar Köhlin.
Organizations that have active collaboration with EfD can become partners to EfD. A partnership is a platform to establish closer working relationships with other EfD partners. In the future, partnership can be used as a first step towards membership.
