SBCA member Philippe Barla (Université Laval) recently produced a new cost-benefit analysis textbook in French that can be easily translated. This manual published under a CC.BY license is intended for people with basic knowledge of microeconomics and wishing to acquire the foundations of cost-benefit analysis (CBA). An English version can easily be obtained using Google translate. CBA corresponds to a set of practices derived from economic theory and aimed at evaluating the social profitability of a project or public policy. This decision-making tool is used by several international organizations as well as many governments. Learn more>>
