Dr. Jean-Daniel RINAUDO is researcher at Brgm (French Geological Survey) where he coordinates the scientific program on environmental and risk economics Initially trained as an agricultural engineer (Montpellier SupAgro 1994), he specialized in agricultural and resource economics (PhD University of Auvergne, 2000). Prior to joining Brgm, he worked for the International Water Management Institute in Pakistan where his research focused on the political economy of irrigation management reforms. His current research mainly focuses on the institutional economic dimension of groundwater management. Most of his research is conducted in France but he also works in Morocco and Chile. He is currently developing new research activities in the field of natural disasters economics, focusing on the methods to assess economic vulnerability and resilience. Dr. Jean Daniel Rinaudo is also member of the Scientific Council of the Adour Garonne River basin agency.
