- Charity-at-Checkout (donations). She collaborates with Prof. Karine Charry (UCLouvain - Consumer Behavior) on this topic.
Furthermore, she started in 2012 developing a yearly barometer of the activities of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) in Wallonie Picarde (Belgium), in collaboration with Wapinvest (the “invest” organization created by the Walloon Region to financially support SME’s activity), with Th. Leclercq (Associate Professor at IESEG, France). This new tool aims at providing SME with information about SME’s activity in their region, and also at making prescribers (banks etc.) and political leaders aware of the socioeconomic and business reality as perceived by SME in Wallonie Picarde.
