Emma Wolton holds a Master’s degree in philosophy from PSL University and is a doctoral student in geography at the Institut Agro Angers, Pôle Horticulture et Paysage. Her thesis is funded by a CNRS doctoral contract as part of the "Wonder" PhD Joint Program between CNRS and the University of Arizona. She is also attached to the ESO (Espace et Sociétés) CNRS n°6590 research unit and to the Environnement : Concepts et Normes team of the Institut Jean-Nicod (UMR 8129) at the Ecole Normale Supérieure. Her current research focuses on the impact of landscape loss on human populations. To this end, she is exploring two areas, in Sweden and Arizona, where the Sami and Tohono O’odham indigenous peoples may see their ancestral landscapes disappear due to mining projects.
