About Zack
I am passionate about research in the areas of behavioural and environmental economics. I am Lecturer in Environmental Economics at the University of Waikato, a role that I combine with being an Economic Analyst for the New Zealand Ministry for the Environment. My research focuses individual behaviours in relation to environmental and resource management, with additional applied work relating to climate and freshwater policy within the agriculture sector. I completed my PhD thesis in environmental and experimental economics at Monash University in 2018.
