Dallas is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Environmental Science at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (ICTA-UAB). She is working on the ERC funded REAL project, which aims to fill social science research gaps in supporting post-growth societal transformations. Her postdoc research aims to uncover perceptions of degrowth and the eco-social policies it prescribes, especially amongst the working class and lower SES groups. These perspectives will be used to design and test framing and communication strategies (e.g., novel metaphors) to broaden support for the degrowth movement.

Dallas undertook her postgraduate education in the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science at LSE, completing a Master’s in Behavioural Science in 2020 and a PhD in 2024. Dallas’s thesis applied experimental methods from psychology and economics to explore the role of individual-level sufficiency practices in transformations towards degrowth. She also studied perceptions of degrowth policy proposals, which inspired her work on the REAL project.

Dallas holds a bachelor’s degree from Cornell University in Policy Analysis and Management, which incorporated economics, public policy, statistics, and sociology. Before coming to LSE, she worked in economic consulting in New York City.

Dallas is a member of LSE's Post-Growth Transformation Lab.
