The FAERE Doctoral Workshop 2026 was held in Annecy and brought together PhD candidates working in environmental, energy, resource, and ecological economics. The workshop provided an opportunity for doctoral researchers to present their work, receive detailed feedback from senior academics and peers, and strengthen scientific exchanges within the FAERE community.

This year’s call for papers was highly successful, with 71 submissions received from a wide range of French and international institutions. Following a double-review process conducted by members of the scientific committee, 11 papers were selected for presentation.
