Hélène Ollivier
I am a Professor at Paris School of Economics (PSE) and a Senior Researcher (directrice de recherche) at the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique).
I am Co-Editor at the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management (JEEM) (from January 2025) and Co-Editor at the Review of Environmental Economics and Policy (REEP) (from January 2026). From 2020 to 2024, I served as Associate Editor at Environment and Development Economics.
As an Environmental Economist, my main research interests are the evaluation of the effects of environmental policies on manufacturing firms and the effects of environmental shocks (such as air pollution or temperature) in a world where units (firms, countries, agents) interact with each other.
I completed my PhD in 2010 at the Economics Department at the École Polytechnique, under the supervision of Jean-Marc Bourgeon. I was then a Ciriacy-Wantrup Fellow at the Agricultural and Resource Economics Department at UC Berkeley (2010–2012). I defended my HDR in 2018.
