As part of its commitment to a common sustainable future, the Collège de France is offering a series of round-table discussions bringing together leading figures from the worlds of academia, business, associations and institutions, and students from higher education.

Conceived as a structured forum for dialogue, this cycle aims to enable the younger generation to question, understand and debate the major issues surrounding climate change. It is part of a process of transmitting knowledge, but also of active listening and co-construction. The Collège de France plays the role of guarantor and facilitator, ensuring the scientific quality of exchanges without influencing their content.

Each meeting is based on a strong principle: to give the students ofAlma Mater, an inter-university, multi-disciplinary and non-partisan journal, broad autonomy in the preparation and organization of exchanges. This approach recognizes their legitimacy in taking up subjects that directly concern their future, and values their ability to take a demanding, critical and committed look at the transitions in progress.

Because climate upheavals call for a collective, intergenerational and enlightened response, Avenir Commun Durable aims to create the conditions for a sincere, rigorous and meaningful dialogue.

Under the patronage of professors Marc Fontecave, Dario Mantovani and Jean-Marie Tarascon.

Avenir Commun Durable is supported by the Collège de France Foundation, its major sponsors Fondation Covéa and TotalEnergies, and its patrons FORVIA and Saint-Gobain.
