Current Research Projects

This study will analyze the economic prerequisites and effects of the mobility transition in the Austrian railroad sector and the automotive supply industry, with a particular focus on the employment effects of this transformation. Through a combination of expert interviews and economic input-output analyses, we will examine how the existing strengths in the transport industry in Austria can be further developed and made fit for the future in order to meet the challenges of the mobility transition and at the same time create sufficient jobs.
The results of this study will help to make a well-founded contribution to the discussion on the design of a sustainable mobility strategy in Austria.

The project examines how a sustainable socio-economic transformation can take place in the face of increasing crises in the areas of climate, biodiversity, and social inequality. It is no longer a question of if, but how this transformation will occur. A central obstacle is the prevailing economic thinking, which views the economy in isolation from social and ecological implications, thereby blocking profound changes. SETER analyzes the interactions between economic models and socio-ecological transformations from an interdisciplinary perspective. The goal is to promote alternative ways of thinking to guide political and public debates toward sustainable solutions.
