Steven Schilizzi

Steven was born in Canada, obtained his PhD in Paris in the field of energy analysis and economics, and worked for INRA in France for a number of years before moving to Australia in 1995.

Since then, Steven has taught and conducted research at the University of Western Australia in Perth. He has lectured in the areas of environmental and resource economics; business and the environment; policy analysis; agricultural economics; project and risk analysis.

His main research interests have been the economics and sustainability of agricultural systems, the economics of conservation tenders as a contract allocation mechanism, and, more recently, integrating social equity into economic and policy analysis.

In both these latter areas, Steven has been using economic experiments as a research tool. He has collaborated with colleagues in Germany, France and Canada, and has headed two research projects in Vietnam.

Steven is currently Deputy Head of the School of Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of Western Australia.
