Zénaïde Dervieux
Zénaïde Dervieux is a contract researcher at the National Museum of Natural History, a member of the UMR 7204 CESCO (Center for Ecology and Conservation Sciences), and an associated researcher at the UMR 8586 PRODIG (Research Center for Geographic Information Organization and Dissemination). She holds a Ph.D. in geography obtained from Sorbonne University's Faculty of Letters in 2021, following a master's degree in environmental anthropology from the National Museum of Natural History. Her research, awarded the "Young Researcher 2020" prize by the Fondation des Treilles, has focused since 2015 on conservation issues in the periphery of Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park (experiences of injustice, green militarization), using an emotional and political ecology approach to analyze the territory. As part of the Atlas program, she is engaging in a dialogue between this research and the periphery of Chad's Zakouma National Park.
