Presentation
Around a central core of evaluation methods, various themes have been introduced over time, notably to introduce the issues of consultation and policy acceptability, as well as behavioral economics to understand endogenous incentives in the field of environmental policies. In addition to developments linked to the introduction of sustainable development and integrated, participative policies, the recent acuteness of climate change issues is generating new needs.
The M1 courses are very much shared with the Public Economics and the Environment course, as are the econometrics and multivariate analysis tools used by the entire program or several courses. In particular, in M1, spread over the two semesters and common to the whole course, there is an application exercise designed to empower students in the analysis of an issue and the operational mobilization of econometric tools, known as PIR (projet individuel de recherche), which has been successfully tested for the past 5 years.
Specific modules on adaptation and evaluation are integrated into M2 courses, with strong mutualization with the Health Systems Economics course for evaluation courses, and with the EPE, Energy Economics and Ecodeva courses for environmental issues.

Further studies
Students will be able to enroll in a doctoral program following their Master's degree, by developing (i) either their mastery of assessment tools on a variety of issues (ii) or their knowledge of the specific issues involved in adapting to CC.
Professional integration
The career opportunities offered by this pathway will be many and varied, depending on the type of organization targeted.
In international organizations (UNDP, UNEP, FAO, WEF, World Bank, OECD...) these issues are at the heart of the Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 (SDGs) and the impact of climate events on livelihoods, which are two key focuses of the projects developed by these institutions.
Local authorities, consultancies, NGOs, government departments, chambers of commerce and producers' organizations are all involved in a wide variety of fields of application relating to (i) the adaptation of sectors (e.g. agriculture in the face of drought) or territories (coastal areas in the face of rising sea levels, ski resorts in the face of global warming), (ii) the management of specific risks (e.g. flooding, heat islands in cities, etc.), as well as (iii) the modalities of public action and the acceptability of these policies....), and more generally (iii) concerning the modalities of public action and the acceptability of these policies, with specificities in terms of types of measures (e.g. nature-based solutions) or tools to take into account cumulative impacts or the long term...
