Summary
Behavioral economics - a field based in collaborations among economists and psychologists - focuses on integrating a nuanced understanding of behavior into models of decision-making. Since the mid-20th century, this growing field has produced research in numerous domains and has influenced policymaking, research, and marketing. However, little has been done to assess these contributions and review evidence of their use in the policy arena.
Increasing strategic and large-scale investments in low-and middle-income countries are required to ensure a just, equitable, and predictable low-carbon transition. Mobilizing Climate Investment Models is part of a larger initiative to identify the most promising research issues to support an actionable low-carbon transition in the Global South.
Assessment of individual, organizational, and institutional capacities is important to accelerate the pace of transition to a low-carbon economy. Human and Institutional Capacity is part of a larger initiative to identify the most promising research issues to support an actionable low-carbon transition in the Global South.
Identifying policies and the corresponding actors, processes, and methods that enable the creation of a policy environment are important to put climate and low-carbon energy transition policies in motion.
