The J-PAL's experimental approach in development economics

Judith Favereau obtained her PhD in economics under the supervision of Professor Annie L. Cot at the Université Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne on February 14th 2014. Her areas of interest are development economics, experimental economics, philosophy of economics, evidence-based policy. Her research focuses on how development economics, experimental economics, and evidence-based policy interact in order to fight poverty, which implies studying the methodology of these sub-fields and their disciplinary transfers. She is currently a postdoctoral researcher at TINT, the Academy of Finland Centre of Excellence in the Philosophy of the Social Sciences at the University of Helsinki.
