ECO DEV DOC is the documentary resources centre of CERDI, intended for PhD students and lecturer/researchers at CERDI, but also for students studying for their masters and degrees at the University of Clermont Auvergne Economics Department.
The collections kept in the centre reflect research themes in international development economics. Supported by both CERDI (Centre for Study and Research on International Development) and the Department of Economics of Clermont Auvergne University, the documentation centre provides the public with research papers, scientific journals, databases, and also documentary research tools.
Its online portal doc.cerdi.uca.fr provides access to its catalog, news, and thematic monitoring.
Presentation
The documentation centre provides group workspaces, reading rooms, workstations, and a printer available to students. The work tables are equipped with electrical outlets, and the WIFI network covers all the documentary spaces.
From September to April, the documentation centre hosts regular activities, exhibitions, and events.
