Beatrice Gibertini

I am a PhD candidate in Development Economics at the Centre d'économie de la Sorbonne and in Development Anthropology at VU Amsterdam as part of the ADAPTED Joint Doctorate Program.

I conduct data-intensive research on natural resources, gender and development in Africa using both quantitative and qualitative methods. My research focuses on the social and economic impacts of large-scale mining on women's livelihoods.

Additional works include research on the role of large-scale mining in shaping migration patterns in Africa, and artisanal mining formalization policies in Liberia.

Prior to my PhD, I have worked as a Research Assistant for the Development Economics Research Group at the University of Copenhagen, supporting the implementation of the MSME Panel Survey in Myanmar.
