Abstract

This Annual Report presents the scientific contributions in 2025, highlighting its interdisciplinary engagement with contemporary challenges in climate change, sustainable development, and economic policy. The objective is to summarize the core scientific strands, inter alia, (i) climate change and risk governance, (ii) circular economy, (iii) energy policy, (iv) environmental psychology and social dimensions, (v) sustainable development and welfare, and (vi) sustainable tourism. Through empirical analyses, methodological advancements, and policy-oriented frameworks, the research addresses systemic environmental risks, energy transition challenges, advances in eco-efficiency measurement, inclusive wealth policy insights, and behavioral drivers of sustainability. Particular emphasis is given on resiliencebased governance against climate change and the challenges of circular economy transition within European industries. Moreover, the role of the integration of psychological and sociocultural dimensions into environmental valuation and policy design was also important. To summarize, the current report documents a year of scholarly progress and provides a robust foundation for future research and evidence-based decision-making in support of sustainable and climate-resilient development pathways.
