Awards

The Association has implemented awards to honour contributions to resource and environmental economics.


Created in 2020, the title of CREEA | ACERE Fellow is conferred upon individuals who have advanced the profession of environmental and resource economics and made significant contributions to CREEA | ACERE and its operations. Each year, a selection committee will choose fellows based on nominations submitted to CREEA | ACERE, typically by June 30th. New CREEA | ACERE Fellows will be announced the CREEA | ACERE Annual Fall Conference. Nominees must be living at the time of nomination.

To view the current CREEA | ACERE Fellows and how to nominate a prominent economist to the title, please see the CREEA | ACERE Fellows Page.


Initiated in 2018, the Lasserre-Renzetti Prize for best student paper is granted to a paper authored (or coauthored) by a student and presented by that student at the annual conference, and includes a prize of $500 Canadian.

The name of the Prize is meant to honour the memory of late Pierre Lasserre and Steven Renzetti, two economists who have contributed to CREEA | ACERE.
