Debate

What should we think of Youtubeur Inox Tag's feat? Climbing Everest with his camera at just 22 years of age. This quest for performance, to surpass one's limits in order to go further, higher, faster and stronger, has long guided the trail of the greatest adventurers. But this personal, passionate and increasingly contested quest is now being challenged by ecological imperatives. Many personalities are proposing a different vision of adventure, where the destination suddenly becomes secondary, to the benefit of the journey and the time devoted to it. ‘A sedentary lifestyle kills more people than smoking! This is the warning issued by cardiologist François Carré. Spending hours on end behind a screen increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer's... and even myopia. Like diet, physical activity plays a key role in our health. In 2022, the UN revealed that one person in eight in the world was obese, a figure that illustrates the scale of this epidemic. Faced with the increase in chronic diseases, dubbed ‘the diseases of the century’, the good news is that we have the power, individually and collectively, to take action. 
Through the stories of several adventurers in the know, we will set out on the paths of sobriety, impact and respect for living things. Finally, we will question the notion of exploration, different from the individualistic notion of adventure, in what it implies: a humanist goal of bringing back knowledge, understanding of the world and resilience’.
In this session, we will explore how our daily choices - physical activity, diet, screen time - influence our health and wellbeing. By analysing the barriers to change, we will propose practical solutions for adopting healthier and more sustainable lifestyles. But it's not just a question of individual responsibility: what role should public authorities and businesses play in safeguarding our health? Prevention, education, information... How can we create a positive and enjoyable dynamic?

It's a revolution as radical as that of Copernicus, who in the 16th century moved the Earth from the centre of the universe. Today, our own place as defined by modernity is being called into question. Since the 2014 law, animals have been recognised as sentient beings, but this progress remains incomplete. The ecological impasse in which we find ourselves, the contributions of the ecological sciences, but also of the social sciences, are forcing us to go further and (re)admit that we too are animals, neither superior nor detached from the rest of living beings.
This vision overturns the anthropocentric paradigm that, since the industrial era, has justified the unlimited exploitation of the planet. It's time to reinvent our relationship with nature, recognising that we are an integral part of this fragile balance.

More and more employees are advocating for action on ecological transition within their companies. They are often the best positioned to implement change through their daily actions but need support to succeed.

This panel discussion, built around concrete experiences and actionable design proposals, aims to empower every employee, at all levels, to become an agent of change. We will highlight the power of collective dynamics, where management and employees align to drive transformations that are both profound and sustainable. Drawing from the experiences of employees involved in collectives, we will engage leaders who are discovering this new form of partnership.

What levers enable concrete and ambitious actions? How can these be designed and, most importantly, sustained over the long term?

How can we identify the employees most eager to engage and inspire them to take action?

Join us to explore ways to accelerate corporate transformation while addressing the growing expectations of employees.

Aujourd’hui, plus que jamais, des visions innovantes bousculent nos manières de concevoir nos villes. 
Qu’il s’agisse de repenser nos mobilités, d’imaginer des quartiers où tout est accessible en quelques minutes, ou de transformer nos territoires en laboratoires de créativité collective, cette conférence explore les voies pour donner un nouveau souffle à nos espaces de vie. Habiter : c’est un art, celui de co-construire des lieux à échelle humaine, ancrés dans leurs spécificités, et portés par l’énergie citoyenne.

Inspirés par des approches ingénieuses, nous réfléchirons à des solutions concrètes pour reconnecter nos territoires avec nos besoins, nos valeurs et nos envies. Et si la ville ou le village de demain n’étaient plus imposés, mais pensés, vécus et façonnés par celles et ceux qui les habitent ?

Join an immersive 3-hour citizen workshop to explore the vital connection between our food choices, biodiversity, and health. In a warm and participatory atmosphere, come to learn, exchange ideas, and collectively reflect on concrete solutions for a diet that respects both our plates and ecosystems.

What’s on the menu? Interactive quizzes to challenge preconceived notions, dynamic debates on the barriers to sustainable eating, and small-group workshops to develop actionable individual and collective solutions alongside experts. Together, let’s identify key levers for action and commit to building a future where preserving biodiversity becomes second nature in our daily lives.

No worries! The workshop is in expert hands, led by Judith Ferrando and Yann Feurté from Missions Publiques, masters in the art of participatory dynamics. You’ll be guided every step of the way by a passionate and attentive team, ready to answer your questions and support you with care and enthusiasm.

Whether you’re simply curious or already committed, a beginner or an expert, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to boost your agency while discovering how to combine joy on your plate with respect for the planet. Bring your ideas and energy, and leave feeling inspired!
