Education and career[edit]

Before joining FAO, Laborde was senior research fellow in the Markets, Trade and Institutions Division and theme leader on macroeconomics and trade for International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in Washington, D.C. Prior to that, he was a researcher at the Centre d'Etudes Prospectives et d'Informations Internationales (CEPII) in Paris, France, where he was a member of the Modelling International Relationships in Applied General Equilibrium (MIRAGE) team. He has been a GTAP research fellow since 2005[3] and is a contributor to the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) database.

As an economic modeler, Laborde has developed several computable general equilibrium (CGE) models applied to trade and agriculture policies and environmental issues, including the MIRAGE and MIRAGRODEP models.[4]. He has developed databases on applied tariff duties, such as the Market Access Map HS6 (MAcMapHS6)[5] and the ADEPTA,[6] as well as the Tariff Analytical and Simulation Tool for Economists (TASTE) software.[7]

Since 2015, he has worked on quantifying the cost for achieving Sustainable Development Goal 2 (eradicating global hunger), taking into consideration the role of goods, capital, and migration flows.[8] [9] He also works on environmental issues, including climate change and biofuels.[10]

Laborde has a bachelor's degree and Ph.D. in international economics from the University of Pau and the Adour Region (L'Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour, often known by the initialism UPPA) in Pau, France.

Laborde is the recipient of the Alan A. Powell award in 2018.[11]
