Read about the "Salt Trial" in the Camargue in Le Parisien
"The wild Camargue is a fragile ecosystem, made more vulnerable by the effects of global warming. To encourage local players to engage in dialogue, CNRS researcher Raphaël Mathevet has devised an extraordinary fictional trial, the salt trial, which will take place in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in November 2025.

What if a natural element could be judged?
This is the original idea behind the Salt Trial, a ground-breaking initiative exploring the possibilities for adapting and transforming human activities in the Camargue in the face of salinisation of the environment and climate change.
A story to rethink biodiversity in the Camargue
Next November, researchers, artists, elected representatives, residents and users will gather at Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer for a mock trial, giving all members of the local Camargue community the opportunity to testify on the region's current ecological problems.
The aim? To tell the story of a negotiation between diverse interests and divergent visions to preserve the Camargue ecosystem, which has been weakened by climate upheaval and the use of its resources.
The Salt Trial is therefore an inspiring model of ecological education, showing that art can be a powerful force for constructive debate.
