We welcome a new member to the CSTS team
We are happy to announce a new member of the CSTS group. Konstanty tells us a bit more about himself in this post.
I am a graduate of the College of Interdisciplinary Individual Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Warsaw, where I pursued a BA in ethnology and cultural anthropology and MA in Sociology. Due to my past collaboration with environmental and sustainability-oriented NGOs I developed a long-standing interest in climate change and decarbonization's impact on society and inequalities, which guides me in my research inquiries.
My past research projects include a qualitative study of the attitudes of Polish labor union representatives toward the energy transition, which I conducted in cooperation with one of the main union headquarters in Poland. I was also involved in an international climate policy assessment project, European Climate Neutrality Observatory external page(ECNO), where I co-created a chapter on Just and Inclusive Transition in the first consortium’s flagship report, State of EU progress to climate neutrality.
Within TdLab, I will support CSTS Group efforts in the project Co-Evolution and Coordinated Simulation of the Swiss Energy System and Swiss Society (CoSi). My work will be focused on designing and conducting a literature review and qualitative study that will create a foundation for further activities within CoSi, and contribute to the aim of a successful energy transition in Switzerland.
