Biography
Youth and professional career
Catherine Hervieu was born in Morocco. Her family moved to Dijon when she was a child.[1]
She is a teacher then a psychologist.[1]
Alongside her political commitment, she is a member of several environmental associations. She is notably a director of France Nature Environnement in Côte-d'Or, president of Atmo Bourgogne Franche-Comté from 2017 to 2023 and then president of the Fédération Atmo France, which brings together approved French air quality monitoring associations.[2]
Local politics
Catherine Hervieu entered politics in 1992 by joining The Greens. In 1997, she stood for her first election, after the dissolution of the National Assembly by Jacques Chirac.[1] She was a substitute candidate in these legislative elections.[3]
In 2001, she was elected municipal councilor of Dijon on the list of the plural left of François Rebsamen.[1] She was re-elected in 2008 and 2014. She became vice-president of Dijon Métropole in charge of the environment.[4] In parallel with her mandates, she chaired the Federation of Green and Ecologist Elected Representatives (Feve).[4]
As the 2020 municipal elections approached, while Catherine Hervieu was president of the EELV group on the municipal council, Dijon ecologists unanimously chose to lead an independent list of François Rebsamen.[5] The activists chose Stéphanie Modde rather than Catherine Hervieu to lead this list, which remains in the second round against the mayor's list.[6] She became an opposition municipal and metropolitan councilor.[7]
In 2021, she was a candidate in the departmental elections in the Canton of Dijon-3, which includes the districts of Les Grésilles, Montmuzard and Joffre-Pouilly-Toison d'Or, in tandem with the outgoing socialist Hamid El Hassouni.[8] The duo gathered 50.2% of the votes in the first round, but was not elected due to abstention. In the second round, Catherine Hervieu and Hamid El Hassouni were elected departmental councilors with 53.8% of the votes against a centrist duo.[9]
Catherine Hervieu has run several times for the National Assembly in Côte-d'Or's 2nd constituency, a constituency that leaned to the right from 1988 to 2022. She was first a substitute in 1997 and then a Green Party candidate in 2002, 2007, 2012 and 2017. For the 2022 French legislative election, while the outgoing The Republicans (LR) deputy Rémi Delatte did not stand again, she received the nomination of the New Ecological and Social People's Union.[10] She came first in the first round, two points ahead of the Ensemble candidate Benoît Bordat, deputy mayor of Dijon and departmental councillor. She was beaten in the second round by Benoît Bordat, who received 51.7% of the vote and benefited in particular from the transfer of votes from the right.[11]
National politics
Catherine Hervieu is back on the campaign trail in the 2024 French legislative election, nominated by the New Popular Front. In the first round, she received 27.67% of the vote, behind Tatiana Guyénot of the National Rally (34.64%) but ahead of the outgoing MP (24.65%). Benoît Bordat initially announced that he would remain in the race for the triangular election, then withdrew "to beat the National Rally".[12] In the second round, Catherine Hervieu was elected MP with 53.63% against the RN candidate.[13]
