How to face the challenges of an increasing world population ant the preservation of agrobiodiversity
The joint challenges of food safety and conservation of agrobiodiversity are making us rethink the issue of agricultural production. We have to produce more, but especially better in order to sustain biological diversity, mitigate climate change and adapt to it. This prospect urgently calls for the development of a sustainable crop production system that relies less on natural resources (soils, wateraquifer), fertilizers and protection products. There are probably many ways to address these challenges, and it is undisputed that science and technology have a major role to play in this respect.

“Clash of Cultures”? Confrontation, Collusion and Cooperation in Wartime since 1870
L’état de guerre a de nombreuses conséquences imprévisibles. L’une d’entre elle est la mise en mouvement de masses humaines qui forcent des individus et des groupes à entrer en contact les uns avec les autres, souvent de manière imprévue. Ces échanges mènent à de nombreuses stratégies de gestion qui induisent parfois une opposition d’ordre culturel mais peuvent aussi, dans d’autres cas, mener vers des relations de coopération. Le but de ce colloque est d’explorer les multiples conséquences de ces interactions en temps de guerre.
