The Underlying Effects of Group-Based Dominance and Power on Pro-Environmental Behaviour

Thursday, March 9, 2023 · Brussels, Belgium

Other

Recent work demonstrates that group-based processes and identities are a strong predictor of individuals’ pro-environmental behaviours. In an effort to highlight common sources that undermine individual pro-environmental behaviour, this symposium focuses on the role of internalised notions of dominance or power, central to those group-based processes and identities.
