RESUME
Marion Allet successfully defended, on February 21, 2013, her PhD Thesis in Economics and Management under joint supervision between the Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management (Université libre de Bruxelles - ULB) and at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (IEDES-UMR 201). Her research focused on « green microfinance » and sought to assess to what extent it is relevant for microfinance to aim at an environmental bottom line.
Since 2009, Marion has also been working as a project manager, with Planet Finance and then with PAMIGA, on various programs promoting access to renewable energy, energy efficiency, and clean water through microfinance. She has extensive work experience in sub-Saharan Africa and Central America. She now works as Head of Environment at Cerise+SPTF.
