Amsellem holds a Ph.D. in Economics. Her thesis, “Museums go international – new strategies, new business models,” was published in 2019 by Peter Lang and received the most prestigious recognition in its category, the ENCATC award. She has also launched non-partisan feminist political campaigns in France such as the movement for equal pay and #StopPrécaritéMenstruelle to make organic menstrual products available in public places.
