Fausto Corvino

Fausto Corvino is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow in Philosophy at the Hoover Chair in
Economic and Social Ethics, Institut supérieur de philosophie (ISP), UCLouvain. Fausto’s research interests
focus on intergenerational justice, climate justice, and economic ethics. Before joining UCLouvain, he
worked on the ethics of market-based approaches to climate policy. At UCLouvain, he is investigating the
moral responsibilities of high-net-worth emitters. Among other things, he is examining whether, in addition
to pricing carbon, we should either prohibit or strongly discourage some greenhouse gas emitting activities
of the global rich, and which policies we should use to do so, based on both normative and non-normative
criteria (PROHIBLUX project).
Previously, Fausto was a Postdoctoral Researcher in Practical Philosophy at the University of Gothenburg
(Sweden) (Financial Ethics Research Group), a Postdoctoral Researcher in Moral Philosophy at the
Sant Anna School of Advanced Studies (Pisa, Italy) (DIRPOLIS Institute – Law, Politics and Development),
and a Postdoctoral Researcher in Theoretical Philosophy at the University of Turin (Italy) (Labont – Center
for Ontology). He holds a PhD in Politics, Human Rights and Sustainability from the Sant Anna School of
Advanced Studies (Pisa, Italy), with research in political philosophy.
