In 1984 Baupin graduated with an engineering degree from Paris's École Centrale Paris, subsequently became director of the international NGO "Terre des hommes" ("Planet of mankind").
A member of the Green Party since 1989, he served as council to the then-leader of the French Greens, Dominique Voynet, in the European Parliament, and in 1997 as special adviser to the French Ministry of Territorial Management. Since 1995 he has been an elected official of the 20th arrondissement of Paris.
Baupin has been a strong supporter of cooperation between the Greens and the French Socialist Party. This coalition has jointly governed the city since 2001 and has been at the heart of the city's greening as well as a variety of other social, economic and environmental initiatives.
In March 2007 he was designated by the Green Party to lead the campaign for the 2008 municipal elections.
In 2016 he was accused by several women in his party of sexual harassment. That scandal led to his decision to leave his position.
