Overview
Ludivine's expertise lies in the areas of agri-food-environmental issues, devolution and international trade from multilevel and multidisciplinary perspectives. Her research focuses on the impact of Brexit and COVID-19. In particular, she is interested in agri-food democracy, food security, agri-technology, sustainable agriculture, novel food technologies and rural development. Her research investigates public participation, animal welfare, devolution and governance issues across UK (in particular Wales), EU, US and WTO levels. She regularly engages with governments, legislatures and stakeholders (including civil society organisations) especially across the UK and France on these matters.
Ludivine holds postgraduate taught degrees from Paris II Panthéon-Assas and the University of Glasgow, and a PhD from the University of Leeds. She has been a Visiting Scholar at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (US) and a Visiting Lecturer at the University of Georgia (US) and the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies (Italy).
Ludivine is a Member of the Wales Govervance Centre of Cardiff University (WGC), an Associate of the Brexit and Environment Network and a member of the Environmental Governance Stakeholder Group within Welsh Government. Further, she serves on the management board of the European Council for Agricultural Law (CEDR).
She is also Book Review Editor of the European Journal of Risk Regulation (EJRR) and part of the editorial board of Le Déméter (in French).
She is part of the management group of the newly established Centre for Inclusive Trade Policy @centre4ITP) funded by the ESRC. More to follow as the project develops until 2026.
In 2022, she published two major books: a monograph entitled ‘Brexit and Agriculture’ (with Mary Dobbs) for Routledge. She is also one of the co-editors of the edited collection entitled ‘The Governance of Agriculture in Post-Brexit UK’ (Routledge).
