WIC Online Colloquium ********************* Setu Pelz, Shonali Pachauri & Caroline Zimm International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) Intersecting Inequities in Energy Consumption, Decent Living Standards, and Risk of Climate Change Exposure in Ghana, India, and Brazil Tuesday, February 7th, 2023, 11:00 – 12:00 (CET) Please register for the presentation until one day before the presentation 10:00 (CET): https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium/wic-colloquium-registration Login information will be sent to registered participants shortly before the start of the presentation. Abstract: Literature linking residential energy consumption, human development and climate change risk is growing but is largely concentrated at the aggregate level. We combine consumer expenditure microdata for two time periods from Brazil (2002/2017), Ghana (2005/2017) and India (2004/2011) with a spatial climate exposure dataset (SSP2, 1.5dC, 2030) to identify intersecting inequities across the income distribution and across space. We first describe the dual challenge of energy access and affordability among poorer households and extend this analysis to include private mobility, identifying dramatic and consistent shifts towards private mobility fossil fuel consumption among the upper deciles. Second, we operationalize the decent living standards, a multi-dimensional measure of human wellbeing, across the income deciles. This highlights the strength of this framework in identifying deprivations among poorer households using standard publicly available microdata. Thirdly, we link achievement of decent living standards with climate risk, identifying both spatially and by income level an acutely vulnerable population requiring climate adaptation policy support. About the presenter: Setu Pelz joined IIASA in 2022 as a research scholar in the Energy, Climate, and Environment (ECE) Program. He works on the analysis and modeling of energy poverty, access, demand, and transitions, with a particular focus on regions of the Global South and vulnerable communities globally. Prior to joining IIASA, Pelz pursued his PhD with the Department of Energy and Environmental Management at Europa Universitat Flensburg, Germany. His research interests include energy access, just transitions, and sustainable development.

CEU public lecture: Massimo Morelli (Bocconi); Wed February 8, 5:40 pm – 7:20 pm
by Timea Laura Molnar 26 Jan '23

26 Jan '23

Dear all, our next speaker at CEU is Massimo Morelli (Bocconi), and you are cordially invited to attend his (hybrid) public lecture, titled “Given its consequences, can populism be long lasting?”. Time and venue: Wednesday, February 8, 5:40 pm – 7:20 pm, 51 Quellenstrasse 1100 Vienna, room: Auditorium. For onsite or online participation, please RSVP under the “Registration” tab on the event website: https://events.ceu.edu/2023-02-08/given-its-consequences-can-populism-be-lo… Abstract: Although populism has always been present in society, the ongoing surge in populism is particularly worrisome given its intensity and the persistence of its underlying alleged causes. We need to highlight the worrying trends, discuss the mechanisms potentially leading to snowball dynamics, and call for concrete actions to restore trust in institutions, especially supranational ones. The focus of researchers, policymakers and reformers should now be on the consequences of populism for democratic backsliding and on the short run and long-run consequences for economic performance and for the functioning of existing institutions. Speaker’s website: http://www.massimomorelli.eu/. For any inquiries, contact Judit Lafferthon, at LafferthonJ(a)ceu.edu<mailto:LafferthonJ@ceu.edu>.
