Ella Henninger is a lecturer at ETH Zurich, specializing in the Chair of International Political Economy and Environmental Politics. Her research primarily focuses on environmental governance, particularly how various actors—citizens, NGOs, businesses, and international organizations—respond to and shape policy designs aimed at reducing urban air pollution in the Majority World. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Geography and Political Science from the University of Münster and a Master of Arts in Political Science from the University of Mannheim, where she concentrated on quantitative methods. During her studies, she gained experience as a tutor and a research assistant, contributing to the Chair of Quantitative Methods in Social Sciences. Her current research project, running from 2023 to 2025, aims to design environmentally effective yet politically feasible policies for cleaner urban air in the Global South. Henninger utilizes both qualitative and experimental quantitative methods to study public opinion on pollution governance, exploring how trust influences support for mitigation policies and how daily variations in air pollution affect governmental satisfaction and views on pollution control.
