The group, composed of economists, philosophers, political scientists, and environmental scientists, is currently working on four distinct fields of research:

• Aporophobia: conducting conceptual research on its characteristics, studying the relationship between aporophobia and artificial intelligence, working on the development of an implicit association test (IAT) of aporophobia, and conducting aporophobia modelling and simulation.
