Tabea Dorndorf is a Doctoral Researcher in the Carbon Management Team of the Integrated Assessment Modelling Group. In her research, she focuses on the sustainability and justice of carbon dioxide removal pathways.
Tabea has a background in qualitative and quantitative empirical social science and holds a M.Sc. in Global Development from the University of Copenhagen. In her thesis, she researched opinions about carbon removal and related technologies among carbon management experts in relation to theory on mitigation deterrence. Prior to joining PIK she worked on supply chain analysis using input output models.
