Our team
The initiative is fully supported by Mirova within its Sustainable Development Research department, led by Mathilde Dufour. Manuel Coeslier, appointed as Head of the structure, operates on a daily basis.
MRC relies on a scientific committee composed of academics and financial institutions. It contributes to guiding research directions, participates in the design and selection of new partnerships and projects, and evaluates ongoing initiatives to maximize their impact. Additionally, committee members may also have responsibilities in established academic partnerships, bringing their expertise to enrich our collaborations.
