Life and work edit

Vidal centers her research on two African countries: Rwanda (from its pre-colonial history to the genocide of Tutsi Rwandans in 1994) and Ivory Coast (the history and sociology of urbanization in its largest city Abidjan). This research has been carried out in the framework of the Centre d'Études Africaines de l'Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales. She has been a leader and author with Doctors without Borders (MSF) since 1995 on many publications, and she is a member of MSF's CRASH endeavors.[6]
