ECTS: 5
Language: German/English
Exam type: Seminar paper
Lecturer: Frauke Fischer
Content: The event will begin by teaching the basics of threats to biodiversity and ecosystem services and explaining the economic dimension of their loss. It will then discuss methods for calculating the monetary value of biodiversity and ecosystem services and use selected examples to illustrate how ecosystem services are valued. It will also introduce the relevant international players involved in the economic valuation of biodiversity and ecosystem services and the products they publish. Students gain insight into the problem of biodiversity loss and the economic implications of this development. They become familiar with current monetary valuation methods, studies, initiatives (from politics, business, and society), and economic solutions for the loss of biological diversity and ecosystem services, and are able to participate competently in current discussions on the topic.
