Project

ITA | ENG

The project is structured in four phases:

1. 1- A theoretical meta-synthesis laying the foundation for investigating climate solidarity. This process defines a new research domain intersecting disciplines such as sociology, psychology, economics, political ecology, and sustainability transition studies.
2. 2- Qualitative inquiry through focus groups aimed at exploring factors that promote or hinder the adoption of low-carbon behaviors in various Italian contexts.
3. 3- A survey on a representative sample of the Italian population to provide a detailed description of lifestyles, simultaneously investigating readiness for change.
4. 4- An innovative survey experiment designed to provide evidence on the prosocial framing's ability to promote low-carbon behaviors.

The research results will offer crucial insights for policymakers on viable pathways for a significant shift toward low-carbon behaviors at the household level.
