Hi Psci-commers
I am looking for any research that has been done on the cost-effectiveness
of education vs. legislation on changing behaviour.
It is to support some work I am doing some work for the UN/FAO on climate
change and I would have thought that surely educating people (especially
young people) would be more cost effective than bringing in laws and
creating new infrastructure to force people to comply...but maybe not? Does
anyone know of any research in this area? I guess it needn't necessarily be
on climate change - maybe similar research has been done on other public
health issues like smoking or healthy eating?
Any suggestions from the collective Psci-com brain would be welcome
Thanks
Sarah
