Dr. Hazel V. J. Moir, Honorary Associate Professor at the Australian National University (ANU) Centre for European Studies, is an economist, with substantial policy advising experience and a PhD in public policy. Over the past two decades her work has focused on the economic impact of IP policy, particularly patent policy and GIs. In addition to research and academic publishing, she makes submissions to both Australian and international enquiries, such as the 2016 UN Secretary- General’s High-Level Panel on Access to Medicines. Her work on the economic impact of IP policies also takes her into the field of trade treaties, and she currently takes a particular interest in the EU-Australia trade negotiations (2018 onwards).

Her work on GIs is largely empirical, focusing on the impact of GIs on producer net incomes. It includes an EU-funded Jean Monet grant “Understanding Geographical Indications” (March 2017 to March 2019) and articles in the Journal of World Trade (51(6), Dec. 2017; and 56(6), Dec 2023), Studies in Agricultural Economics (120(3), Dec. 2018) and Sustainability (12(22), Nov. 2020).

Prior to studying for her PhD in public policy at the ANU, Hazel Moir worked at senior levels in the Australian Public Service for two decades, largely on industry, innovation and trade matters. Earlier she worked in the UK, New Zealand, Indonesia, Thailand and France, largely in the private and non-government organization (NGO) sectors.

She has PhD degrees from Brown University (demography, 1975) and the ANU (public policy, 2010), a European Master’s Degree in human rights (University of Padua, 2001) and an honors degree in economics (University of Cambridge, 1969).
