About Paulina Bohdanowicz

Dr Paulina Bohdanowicz holds the Associate Fellowship at the International Centre for Responsible Tourism at Leeds Metropolitan University. Her area of interest includes corporate social responsibility and environmental issues in the hotel, travel and tourism industry, with particular focus on energy aspects (consumption patterns, energy efficiency and conservation possibilities, as well as applicability of renewable energies). The influence that behaviour, of staff as well as guests, has on the energy consumption patterns in a hotel facility and possible methods of altering behaviour are part of her research area. She also performs investigations on how tourism can enhance the environmental awareness among the general public, as well as the tools that can be developed and used to that end.
