Stéphane La Branche

Chercheur indépendant et climatologue de la société (ou sociologue du climat!), ce sont les interactions entre nos activités et la nature dans les deux sens qui me fascinent.

Independent reseacher and social climatologist (or sociologist of climate and energy), I am facinated by the interactions between our activities and nature, be they negative, positive or neutral.

Especially, I explore the issues of the drivers of behavioural and societal change and non change in ecological transition efforts since 2002 in several areas: adaptation to climate change, mobility, sobriety, territorial policies, town planning, social representations, perceptions, behaviors, institutional identity and operations…

Scientific coordinator of the GIECO / IPBC (go check it out!!! IPBC Home | International Panel on Behavior Change) since 2019, my researches have led me to contribute to and work with many different institutions (international, European and national in different countries), as well as well as numerous Territorial Climate Plans in France.
