With global warming and the need to transition to net zero carbon emissions, renewable sources of energy receive more and more attention. Forests and water have long been at the heart of the energy provision in human societies and it is still the case in many contexts. Hydropower or fuelwood remain core sources of energy at the household level and for some economic activities, especially in rural areas of developing countries. But forests and water also indirectly provide energy to human beings through their interaction with food production: water is a key input in agriculture while forests are more than the residual use of agricultural land. They play a role to feed livestock, provide edible plants and fruits.
The “Forest, Water and Energy” workshop intends to create synergies between researchers from social science and natural science around three research objects that are connected in practice but seldom in scientific studies.

The Opening Economics Chair allows economists to respond in creative and effective ways to the major questions of our times, by integrating two observations: that current challenges, complex and multifaceted as they are, demand an approach that transcends disciplinary boundaries, and that economics research must be renewed by advances made in other related disciplines.
