About this position

CIRAD is recruiting a PhD candidate for the CARE (Community Awareness and Response for Emerging Zoonotic Outbreaks) project, focused on the epidemiological and economic evaluation of a community-led zoonotic disease risk reduction approach. The project sits at the intersection of One Health, epidemiology, health economics, and public health, with a strong emphasis on community co-designed interventions and participatory research.

The successful PhD student will work on assessing the epidemiological, health, and socio-economic impacts of interventions aimed at reducing zoonotic disease risks in Zimbabwe. The work involves field investigations, data collection and analysis, participatory methods, surveillance-related approaches, and community engagement. The position is embedded in a multidisciplinary team involving CIRAD, the Institut Pasteur, and the University of Zimbabwe.

Location: Montpellier, France and Harare, Zimbabwe.

Funding: PhD salary of €2,300 gross/month.

Experience with epidemiological surveys, surveillance systems, or participatory methods is an asset. A minimum B2 level in English is required; French is appreciated but not mandatory. A valid driving licence recognized in Zimbabwe is also required.

Deadline: 15 August 2026.
