Dominik Naeher is a Senior Research Fellow (Postdoc) at the University of Göttingen, where he also served as Interim Professor (W2) of Development Economics from 2024 to 2025. Before this, he worked as Assistant Professor of Economics at University College Dublin and earned his PhD from Goethe University Frankfurt (GSEFM) in 2018. His research combines microeconomic modeling and empirical methods to study questions in development economics, information economics, and sustainability and environmental economics. A central focus of his work is the determinants and consequences of technology adoption, including the role of information frictions in shaping adoption decisions and economic outcomes, and how technologies that mitigate these frictions transform individual behavior, markets, and policy. His recent work encompasses applications to digital transformation, information regulation, climate adaptation, rural development, regional integration, and policy evaluation. He is currently a Principal Investigator in a DFG-funded research project on child labor. He has taught at universities in Germany, France, Ireland, China, Korea, and South Africa, and regularly provides policy advice to international organizations and NGOs, including the World Bank, EBRD, Asian Development Bank, African Center for Economic Transformation, GIZ, and United Nations agencies.
