My name is Dominique de Villeneuve and I am currently doing my Master in Human Decision Science at Maastricht University. The program combines game theoretic clarity with human factors of bounded rationality, biases, emotions, and nudging. It is a nice follow up to my bachelor’s in economics, which specialized in microeconomics and game theory. From consumer behavior to emergency decisions: everything related to understanding how to make smart individual and strategic decisions interests me. After reading the book by the Noble Prize winner Elinor Ostrom (1990) on governing the commons, I have become fascinated by the management of common-pool resources. It reflects the challenge that humanity faces today with regards to climate change.
