Environmental Economist Sebastian Tonke Awarded 2026 Joachim Herz Prize worth €500,000
type: NewsArticle
title: Environmental Economist Sebastian Tonke Awarded 2026 Joachim Herz Prize worth €500,000
description: Prof. Dr. Sebastian Tonke, an environmental economist based in Munich, has been awarded the 2026 Joachim Herz Prize, one of Germany's most valuable scientific awards, recognizing his groundbreaking research on sustainable drinking water use. The award ceremony took place on August 27, 2026, in Hamburg. Tonke will receive €500,000 for his project aimed at developing effective incentives to reduce water consumption amidst growing concerns about water scarcity due to climate change. In his study, Tonke is integrating digital water meters with a smartphone app, allowing households to monitor their drinking water usage in real time. His research will analyze which strategies effectively encourage families to conserve water, with the goal of assisting water utilities and policymakers in formulating better conservation measures. As stated by the Federal Statistical Office, a significant portion of Germany's drinking water—around 80%—is consumed by private households and small businesses. This highlights the urgency of addressing water conservation, particularly as droughts and regional shortages become more prevalent. Over the past 25 years, Germany has lost 60 km³ of water, equivalent to twenty times the volume of Lake Starnberg, according to Federal Environment Minister Carsten Schneider. Tonke's project, named WETTER (Water Efficiency through Technology, Targeting, and Experimental Research), aims to equip 4,000 households with digital water meters to gather data on water usage behavior and assess the effectiveness of various conservation incentives. These insights could potentially be applied to the management of other resources, such as energy. About the Joachim Herz Prize The Joachim Herz Foundation honours outstanding researchers whose interdisciplinary work helps shape a more sustainable future. Endowed with € 500,000, the Joachim Herz Prize supports innovative projects by early-career researchers seeking to deepen their research or translate scientific insights in…

As such the program has been developed to offer an overview of the most commonly used methods for analysing, modelling and forecasting the dynamic behaviour of time series data, offering practical examples of empirical modelling using real-world data. The course begins with an introduction to Stata’s basic time series commands, before moving onto the analysis of time series features and to univariate time series models. Sessions 3 and 4 instead focus on the estimation of both multivariate time series models with stationary and nonstationary data and univariate models of volatility. In common with TStat’s training philosophy, throughout the course theory and methods are illustrated in an intuitive way and are complemented by practical exercises undertaken in Stata, during which the course tutor discusses and highlights potential pitfalls and the advantages of individual techniques. Particular attention is also given to both the interpretation and presentation of empirical results. In this manner, the course leader is able to bridge the “often difficult” gap between theory and practice of time series modelling and forecasting. Upon completion, it is expected that participants are able to autonomously implement the statistical methods discussed during the course to their own data, customizing when necessary, the Stata do-file routines specifically developed for the course. TARGET AUDIENCE Researchers and professionals working in financial institutions, policy institutions, research departments of utilities, governments, corporations, Ph.D and Master students in biostatistics, economics, f…

The five days will consist of foundations courses aimed at early researchers with some knowledge of Real Business Cycle (RBC) or Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) macroeconomic models, but little or no experience of Dynare. This course assumes a basic knowledge of Matlab and will begin with the basics of Dynare and proceed to the construction, in stages, of a closed economy New Keynesian (NK) DSGE model. It will then progress to the estimation by Bayesian methods, the study of optimal monetary policy and finish with an extension to the open economy NK DSGE model. The course is aimed at MSc, MRes and PhD students, early researchers, and research staff from central banks, ministries and the private sector, all with some prior experience of macroeconomic modelling and a basic knowledge of Matlab. No prior knowledge of Dynare is necessary. Please note that all participants need to have their own copy of Matlab (https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab.html) for the course on Foundations of DSGE Macro Modelling. There is a short-term license available for students which is worth checking: https://www.mathworks.com/campaigns/products/trials.html Advanced Macro-Modelling with Applications to Numerical Methods and Heterogeneous Agents The five-day course in Advanced Modelling will run from 14-18 September 2026.

Visualizing Geospatial Data In Stata: Spatial Maps In Stata - Live Online Course
type: Course
title: Visualizing Geospatial Data In Stata: Spatial Maps In Stata - Live Online Course
description: The creation of spatial maps has become a valuable tool for researchers interested in both the spatial data visualization and the identification of geographical patterns in the data. This interactive course therefore, offers an introduction to the mapping techniques currently available in Stata for visualization of geospatial data. The workshop opens with an overview of the peculiar characteristics of geospatial data, the implications of such for the analysis of such data and an overview of the special terminology used in this field, before moving on to discuss the concept of spatial proximity and its relevance to the visualization of spatial data analysis. The remainder of the workshop is dedicated to the principle mapping techniques, using a combination of both official Stata commands and a series of user written commands, currently adopted to visualize geospatial data in Stata. Participants will learn how to import geospatial data shapefiles in Stata and merge them with their existing Stata databases in order to create, compare and customize different mapping techniques. At the end of the course, participants will be able to autonomously implement (with the help of the Stata routine templates specifically developed for the workshop) the appropriate mapping methods, given both the nature of their spatial data and the analysis in hand, within their own research. TARGET AUDIENCE This online course is of particular interest for criminologists, social psychologists, sociologists, economists, epidemiologists and political scientists seeking to acquire the requisite tools required for the exploration and visualisation of spatial data in Stata. PREREQUISITES A knowledge of basic statistics (distributions of variables, position indices, dispersion indices) and the statistical software Stata is recommended. PROGRAM SESSION I: SPATIAL DATA 1.
