Gabi Doci

I am Gabi Doci, an environmental sociologist and a senior researcher at TNO Vector. In my research I focus on cities who want to become climate neutral by 2030 and try to gain insights into each stage of their transition process.
Specifically, I am interested in who are the main stakeholders at each stage of the journey and what role they play in the process, what are the main focal points of their activities, how they interact, what challenges they face and what are their responses to these challenges. Besides urban transitions, I am also involved in projects focusing on energy communities and explore their potential to scale up and contribute to energy transitions.
