RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE) Founded in 2018 by CMCC in a transatlantic alliance with Resources for the Future (RFF), EIEE has since become a beacon in climate research.
EIEE researchers and tools have proudly contributed to landmark global assessments, including IPCC reports. It stands at the intersection of environment and economics, evaluating sustainable and socially inclusive strategies to combat climate change and other major environmental challenges. We are committed to improving environmental, energy, and natural resource decisions through impartial socio-economic research and policy engagement. We are a central hub for research insights and policy solutions, within Europe and internationally.
EIEE delves deep into:
- Evaluation of strategies towards net-zero emissions and beyond.
- Quantitative Analysis of the socio-economic ramifications of environmental and climatic hazards.
- Frameworks to evaluate and inform policy design to promote environmental and social sustainability.
Expertise:
Grounded in quantitative methodologies, EIEE also embraces qualitative and behavioral sciences to shape its research landscape. Its analytical capacity includes:
- Computational Models: A diversity of numerical approaches to studying the inter-relation between the environment, economy, and society.
- Empirical Methods: Data-informed approaches to illuminate the efficacy of policies to catalyze a green transformation and bolster societal resilience.
Multidisciplinary Approach:
While its primary lens zeroes in on economic and policy paradigms, EIEE champions a holistic, multidisciplinary perspective. Its team brings together fields like economics, applied mathematics, behavioral, political, and environmental sciences.
CMCC EIEE’s expertise combines multidisciplinary research areas, including:
- Sustainable Transitions to Net-zero and Beyond
- Environmental Impacts and Adaptation
- Climate, Finance, Macroeconomics, and Trade
- Environmental & Social Justice
- Innovation and Circularity
- Sustainable Behaviors
- Societal Changes and Political Economy
- Health and Migration
- Biodiversity
- Resilient Cities
