Nudges for Recycling
FIT collaborates with one of Norway's leading waste management companies to study the impact of behavioural nudges and financial incentives to increase recycling among households in Western Norway. Project funded by the Norwegian Research Council in two stages from 2019 to 2023.
The nudges will target both the environmental and the social dimensions of recycling and aims at both studying impacts on behavior, as measured by actual controls of the quantity and the quality of waste, and the participants’ beliefs about recycling and preferences for the environment through questionnaires.
