Biografia

Luca Tiberti ha conseguito un dottorato di ricerca in economia dello sviluppo presso l'Università di Firenze (2008). I suoi principali interessi di ricerca sono la microeconomia applicata, la povertà e l'impatto socio-economico degli shock climatici. Ha lavorato tra il 2008 e il 2010 come ricercatore presso il Centro di Ricerca Innocenti dell'UNICEF. Dopo tre anni di ricerca presso il Centro di Ricerca Innocenti dell'UNICEF, è entrato a far parte del Partnership for Economic Policy (PEP) e dell'Università Laval nel gennaio 2011. Durante il suo periodo a Laval, è passato da ricercatore post-dottorato (2011-2013) a ricercatore (2013-2015), a assistant professor (2016-2021) e, infine, a professore associato (2021).
