Research Interest:
My research focuses on the concept of ecosystem services and the implementation thereof in the practical environmental policies (especially in the area of the green and blue urban infrastructures and forest management) as well as on climate change adaptation and the economic context of implementing nature based solutions. Apart from that, I have also been dedicated in the long term to projects in the area of the energy sector. I have been working at the FSE UJEP since 2015. I am the principal investigator of several national and international scientific research projects and application projects of Czech-German and Central European cooperation. Since 2023 I am the director of the Institute for Economic and Environmental Policy (www.ieep.cz/en).
