I’m happy to share that I won my very first competitive application for funding: the CO-OPTION project proposal has been awarded funding by the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia :)

The project aims to address human cooperation in the sustainable management of public goods, examining how institutional punishments and corruption affect collaboration. Using an approach that combines behavioural economics, game theory, and artificial intelligence, the project studies complex scenarios to improve policies and governance models. The results could be applied to areas such as natural resource management and labour market regulation.

My Italian speaking friends can read more in the dedicated issue of FocusUnimore :)

I didn’t conceive the project proposal all by myself: without the collaboration with Prof. Francesca Pancotto and Prof. Simone Righi CO-OPTION wouldn’t even exist! Thanks to them, and to Prof. Barbara Luppi and Fabio D’Andreagiovanni for joining the team :)

Feel free to contact me to know how you can join us!

Peace.
