Clément Floriane

Research fellow, INRAE

mail: floriane.clement[at]inrae.fr

​I conduct research on agricultural and environmental governance, with a focus on policy processes and multi-level and deliberative forms of governance. I am particularly interested in understanding what creates gaps between policy intentions and outcomes, through multi-level analyses, drawing on institutional analysis, discourse analysis and feminist studies. Theoretically, I have been exploring spaces of dialogue and tensions among institutional analysis, commons studies and (feminist) political ecology.

Before joining INRA in 2018, I studied forest and land policies in Vietnam, watershed policies in India and water and gender development programmes in Nepal. My research at INRA focuses on the implementation of agroecological and agrienvironmental public policies. I mostly draw on qualitative methods but have also used mixed research methods in collaboration with economists and have engaged in participatory action research (participatory video combined with deliberative forums).

EDUCATION

I have a multidisciplinary educational background with an engineering degree in geosciences and civil engineering (Polytech’Orléans, France), an MSc degree in environmental sciences (Chalmers University, Sweden) and a PhD that cut across human geography and political science (Newcastle University, UK).
