This GitHub repository contains the LaTeX source files for a policy brief published on HAL and ResearchGate (DOI:10.13140/RG.2.2.21093.31205).
This document summarises the research carried out in my doctoral thesis available through these GitHub repositories (French and English).
The repository is organized as follows:
main.tex- The main LaTeX file that compiles the policy brief.main.cls- The main style file that contains packages.
backgrounds.sty- Background strips on the left and right of each page.colors.sty- Institutional colors.fonts.sty- Font settings.footers.sty- Footer title and page number settings.headers.sty- Header logos.macros.sty- Commands.margins.sty- Margins.sections.sty- Sections settings.volets.sty- Boxes.
DM.bib- The bibliography file containing all references.
text/...- Contains all sections (00-front-page.tex,01-tc.tex, etc.).figures- Stores figures.logos- Stores logos for headers.background- Stores background images.
To compile the document, choose one of the following methods:
If using a local LaTeX editor, run the following command:
latexmk -pvc -quiet main.texAfter five compilation iterations, the final PDF version of the policy brief will be generated.
You can also use Overleaf to compile the thesis.
