Just wrapped up the ERC Grants Workshop: Advancing Frontier Research in Environmental Economics at EAERE 2025 — a vibrant session dedicated to showcasing cutting-edge research funded by the European Research Council (ERC).
In her capacity as Ambassador for the ERC and ERC Synergy Grantee for the Water Futures project, Prof. Phoebe Koundouri is proud to support and promote frontier research that drives real-world impact across disciplines. During the session, participants explored the scientific impact of ERC projects, shared insights into the grant application process, and inspired the next generation of researchers.
The workshop featured presentations from distinguished ERC grantees:
-
Prof. Lassi Ahlvik – GRETA: Green Tax Reform for a Just Climate Transition
-
Prof. Francesco Lamperti – FIND: Finance and Innovation to Couple Negative Emissions and Sustainable Development
