A sociologist by training, Anaïs Rocci completed her doctoral thesis in the social sciences in 2007 (Université Paris-Descartes, Sorbonne), focusing on the obstacles and levers to changing mobility behaviour in order to reduce individual car use. She has since been working on the analysis of behavioural change.
After spending 5 years in research at the Dynamiques Economiques et Sociales des Transports laboratory at IFSTTAR (Gustave Eiffel University), she continued her career at the 6-t research consultancy, specialising in the study of mobility practices, lifestyles and land use.
In 2018, she joined ADEME, the French Environment and Energy Management Agency, in the Foresight and Research Executive Division, where she is responsible for studies and research in the human and social sciences, as well as opinion polls.
