The Department of Economics of Ecole Polytechnique is pleased to invite you to a conference on climate change impact that will take place on April 3rd from 1 to 2 pm in amphi Faurre.
We are looking forward to a discussion between you and our expert, Prof. Céline Guivarch, member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, who will offer an insight and an economic perspective on one of the most important challenges of our century that affects everything from geopolitics, through economies, to migration.
Learn first-hand how economists see and tackle climate change and why an economic angle in the debate on global warming is so important.
Climate change – through the lens of an economist
Climate change impacts increasingly threaten the livelihoods, health and wellbeing of current and future generations. And yet, current development patterns are the root cause of climate change. This conference will show how climate change is a major challenge for our national and global economies, and for economy as a discipline.
I will use the IPCC report to which I contributed to explain what we know about climate change economics, and what research on climate mitigation pathways and policies looks like.
Prof. Celine Guivarch is a climate change economist at Ecole des Ponts, CIRED (the International Research Center on Environment and Development). Her research focuses on both the economic impacts from climate change and the assessment of mitigation pathways, with a specific emphasis on the links between climate change and inequality. She was a Lead Author of the Chapter “Mitigation pathways compatible with long-term goals” of the 6th assessment report of the IPCC Working Group III on mitigation. She is a member of the French High council for climate, an independent body assessing government climate policy.

To help reduce poverty and vulnerability, we need more timely information on household welfare. Countries derive official measures of poverty from household surveys, which are only conducted every few years due to financial and administrative costs, with even greater lags in low-income and fragile countries.
However, by combining traditional surveys with different modelling approaches and data sources, countries can develop monitoring systems that provide up-to-date estimates on household welfare. Investing in this capacity to monitor welfare in “real time” is essential to inform policy action in the wake of shocks and changing circumstances.
The Department of Economics of IP Paris is honored to invite you to the Nobel Prize in Economics Lecture on Tuesday, January 14th, 2025, from 12:15 PM to max 1:45 PM. All are welcome to attend.
The lecture will present the contributions of this year's recipients, Daron Acemoglu, Simon Johnson, and James Robinson, awarded "for their studies on how institutions are formed and affect prosperity."
The lecture will be given by Pierre Boyer (IP Paris – CREST – X), Héloïse Cloléry (PhD IP Paris – CREST – Postdoc Bocconi), Matías Núñez (IP Paris – CREST – CNRS - X), and Pauline Rossi (IP Paris – CREST – X).
It will be accessible to a broad audience of researchers and students.
The lecture will be held in a hybrid format, both in Amphi 200 of the ENSAE building and online via Zoom.
