Since 2019, Ingo Wolf has been working as a Senior Research Associate at the RIFS, focusing on the social aspects of the energy and transportation transition. His research primarily addresses attitude and acceptance studies, social sustainability, and political participation. As part of the second funding phase of the Kopernicus project "Ariadne - Evidence-Based Assessment for the Design of the German Energy Transition," he explores issues related to the perceived fairness of climate protection measures. He also oversees the evaluation research for the "Science Platform Sustainability 2030 (wpn2030)" project. Additionally, he has been heading the Social Sustainability Barometer since 2019. Prior to joining RIFS, Ingo Wolf worked at the Freie Universität of Berlin, the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, and the Max-Planck-Institute for Human Development.
