As a sports sciences and human ecology post graduate, I am interested in the environmental impact of outdoor recreation. My PhD subject « evolution of outdoor recreation and interaction with wildlife » connects various subjects : sports sociology, geography and ecology. I am especially interested in interrelations between sport practices, representation of nature and perceptions of wildlife disturbance. The aim is to gain better understanding of the visitors of natural areas in order to caracterise human-wildlife interactions.
