5th CIRED International Summer School in Economic modelling of Environment, Energy and Climate

The aim of the CIRED international Summer School is to foster scientific exchanges between participants and faculty members about human and policy dimensions of urban sustainability, and the modelling methods relevant to address the different dimensions to this broad issue.

The Summer School is aimed at advanced graduates (PhD and master) and post-doctoral students in environmental and energy economics and modelling.

The topic of the 5th edition: Human and policy dimensions of urban sustainability

Applications

The topic could cover retrospective (e.g. econometrics) and prospective (e.g. using integrated models) studies on all dimensions of urban sustainability: GHG emissions, adaptation to climate change, air pollution, ecosystem services. The studies should analyze either costs, benefits, or equity issues related to these concepts, and be relevant for policy making, for instance.

- What are the costs of urban climate change mitigation and/or adaptation policies?
- What are their co-benefits?
- What are their short and medium term distributional impacts ?

Those are some of the questions that will be raised during the Summer School, which will gather students working with quantitative approaches to address the different dimensions of this topic.
