Team

The Fair Fuels? project is funded through the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research’s (BMBF) Social-Ecological Research (SÖF) program.

For a successful realization of the project, the Institute for Ecological Economy Research (IÖW) is cooperating with the Latin America Institute (LAI) at Freie Universität Berlin and the German Development Institute (DIE). The participants share numerous years of experience in the analysis of social-ecological problems and conflicts, energy systems, international economics, and policy relationships, as well as with the selected case-study countries.
