LEMNA (Nantes-Atlantic Economics and Management Laboratory) is delighted to host the 12th Annual Conference of the French Association of Environmental and Resource Economists (FAERE). The conference will take place at the IAE of Nantes, Erdre building, on September 4–5, 2025. This event is organized with the support of EAERE.

The aim of FAERE's annual conferences is to foster the production and dissemination of research in environmental economics at both national and international levels. Contributions are welcome from all theoretical and empirical perspectives, covering topics such as — but not limited to — food systems, maritime issues, energy, climate, pollution, transportation, and biodiversity.

We invite you to submit papers, whether theoretical or empirical, in all areas of environmental and natural resource economics. Full papers must be uploaded via the submission page on the conference website. The submission deadline is March 31, 2025, and acceptance notifications, following the selection process, will be sent by mid-May 2025.

Deadline extended to Friday, April 4, 2025, midnight.

Participants may submit an unlimited number of papers; however, only one presentation per person will be allowed in the parallel sessions. To have their paper included in the final program, authors must register for the conference by June 15, 2025.

Those wishing to attend the conference without presenting a paper may register and pay the fees until June 29, 2025 (subject to a total limit of 160 conference participants).

Nicolas Treich (Research Director at TSE, INRAE) will present his recent work on food systems and animal welfare. Nicolas Treich's main areas of interest include animal welfare, risk theory, and cost-benefit analysis. For more information, you can visit his webpage.

A round table discussion will be held on the challenges of offshore wind turbines, in connection with the activities of the Maritime Chair.

At the general meeting of the 11th annual conference, the winner of the FAERE Young Economist Award for the best paper presented at the conference will be announced.
