KLARIZZE ANNE MARTIN PUZON, PhD

ABOUT ME:  My work lies along the interface of development and environmental issues. My interdisciplinary research attempts to understand:

1) How economic & social inequalities affect individual & collective decision-making.

2) How to design institutions & utilize social norms for more equitable & sustainable outcomes.

I primarily use behavioral experiments as tools. 

My experimental work is complemented by large-scale data that I collect using advanced survey methodologies. As principal investigator in several external grants & government-funded projects, I have led & managed fieldwork and data collection, esp. in Sub-Saharan Africa (e.g. Guinea) & Southeast Asia (e.g. the Philippines). I have collaborated with multi-cultural, interdisciplinary teams in various contexts: Universities, governments, & international organizations.  My research outputs have published in refereed journals like European Economic Review, Computational Statistics, and Journal of Behavioral & Experimental Economics. 

At the relatively young age of 26, I obtained my PhD in Economics (Summa cum laude) from the University of Montpellier in France. Before that, I was awarded a Master's degree in Economics (Cum laude) from Toulouse School of Economics as Eiffel scholar of the French government.  I have worked as fixed-term junior professor (Kōshi) at ISER, Osaka University in Japan for almost 3 years. Prior to my 3-year academic post in Japan & subsequent non-academic stint with the United Nations (UN), I engaged in short-term invited visits to universities in Asia & the EU. Currently,  I am affiliated with Royal Holloway, University of London in the UK and the Center for Environmental & Resource Economics (CERE) at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.
