Presentation

My research relies on non-market valuation methods to study the acceptability of environmental and agri-environmental policies among various populations (general public, farmers, etc.). Choice experiment methods, in particular, highlight the trade-offs involved, allowing for the identification of barriers and drivers to the adoption of public policies. The application fields of this research mainly focus on biodiversity conservation in both rural and urban environments.

Research Themes

  • Non-market valuation; Discrete choice experiments
  • Agri-environmental policies; Adoption of agroecological practices
  • Acceptability of biodiversity conservation measures in rural and urban areas
  • Ecosystem services valuation
