Research Interests

Bio

Andrea joined IRES in 2018 as an MA student under the supervision of Dr. Jiaying Zhao. She grew up on the Norwegian countryside and has been in close contact with nature from a young age. This undoubtedly contributed to her keen interest in people’s perceptions of the natural environment and motivations to care for the planet. She went on to study these relations in Australia, and holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Geography from The University of Melbourne. Her research at IRES is in collaboration with the UBC Botanical Garden, focusing on behavioral sustainability and how to motivate meaningful climate action. When not on campus she is likely off hiking, running or skiing.
