Institute for Planetary Health Behaviour (IPB)

Institut für klimagesundes Verhalten

At the IPB, we strive to understand human behaviour to promote health, protect the climate, and preserve the environment.

  • In research, we provide communication, social and behavioural science evidence on climate and health behaviour.
  • In teaching, we train Master's students and graduates to design, evaluate and improve evidence-based health communication and climate communication.
  • In science communication and transfer (Science2Society), we make scientific evidence accessible to both the scientific community and the public. We collaborate with policymakers and society to plan health promotion and climate protection with a human-centered approach.
