Key initiative public policies for transition (KIPPT) 2024-2026

Content type : Page
Today's societies face numerous complex, cross-cutting challenges that call into question the sustainability of our development model and our ability to live together as a society. Environmental, climatic, demographic, political and technological developments (particularly digital) are all challenging our lifestyles, development models, production, consumption, work organization, education, healthcare, spatial planning and mobility..... These changes bring both opportunities and risks, particularly for the most vulnerable populations. They are also a source of risks of social, political and economic breakdown, which directly call into question the governance of our societies. Supporting transitions towards new, more sustainable and fairer development models has become a challenge for public players. To meet this challenge, the Montpellier site offers a dynamic environment for high-level social science research in a range of disciplines: economics, law, political science, geography, education and training sciences, management and sociology. The aim of the Key Initiative Politiques publiques de transition (KIPPT) is to boost the visibility and encourage local, national and international interaction between scientists at the Montpellier site whose work in the social sciences is linked to transitional public policies. On the one hand, it aims to federate researchers and structure them into a sustainable network. In this way, KIPPT will help to stimulate exchanges and synergies, and give visibility to the Montpellier site's collective expertise on public policies for transition. On this basis, KIPPT also aims to structure a "science/society" relationship by acting as a bridge between researchers working on transition policies and public and civil society players. To this end, various partners such as local authorities - notably the Occitanie Region and Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole - companies and associations are involved in the project. A broad, multidisciplinary definition of transitional public policies KIPPT supports a broad definition of transitional public policies, around and beyond the 3 pillars of the I-site - nourish, protect, care. It considers public policy, public action and governance from a multidisciplinary perspective. It brings together a number of laboratories from the I-Site's Social Sciences cluster around three main axes: Axis 1: to stimulate exchanges between laboratories and disciplines around key sectoral themes on the site, such as the climate/energy, ecological, digital, agricultural and food, mobility/transportation, health and other transitions. Axis 2: to encourage reflection on the coherence and articulation between public transition policies and integration issues. Particular attention is paid to the cross-cutting issue of inequality, on the one hand, and to territorial projects as vectors of integration to address tensions between sectoral and territorial logics, on the other. Axis 3: address cross-cutting issues linked to the governance of transitions. Challenges linked to the design of public transition policies (PPT), their public debate and evaluation Challenges linked to the implementation of PPT: cooperation between players, sectors, levels of government, financing, citizen/civil society participation, etc. Challenges linked to the conflictuality/acceptability of transition policies Challenges linked to the methods and instruments mobilized: cost-benefit approaches, multicriteria, incentive instruments, regulations, pricing, planning, trajectories, etc. Challenges linked to the evolution of perceptions, opinions and behaviors of stakeholders in the face of transitions Actions serving the creation of a scientific community A call for multi-disciplinary and multi-laboratory research projects "Structuring" projects "Impulsion" projects A platform dedicated to the KIPPT link Project follow-up and valorization A resource center for the community Three scientific days

Key World Initiative Nutrition - Food systems

Content type : Page
L’initiative clé internationale Nutrition – Systèmes alimentaires (FOODS) est développée à l’Université dans le cadre du projet UM2030, lauréat de l’Appel à Projets « Intégration et Développement des IdEx et des ISITE » (IDéES). L’initiative est le résultat d’une collaboration bilatérale entre l’UM et l’Université de Pretoria (UP) et permet le passage vers des collaborations multilatérales en réunissant les partenaires stratégiques des deux institutions. FOODS prend la forme d’une plateforme collaborative mondiale de formation doctorale et constitue une infrastructure mondiale virtuelle pour la coopération internationale. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qPREwO7ws4 Les acteurs L’initiative Nutrition – Systèmes alimentaires a été co-construite avec l’Université de Pretoria dès mai 2022. Côté UM, l’initiative est portée scientifiquement par Karen Lambert-Cordillac, Maitre de conférences à la Faculté de Pharmacie de l’Université de Montpellier et Patrick Caron, Cirad, Chargé de mission pour l’Université. Côté Université de Pretoria, le référent est Frans Swanepoel du Centre Future Africa. L’initiative prend la forme d’une plateforme collaborative mondiale de formation doctorale réunissant des doctorants des partenaires stratégiques des deux institutions. La Plateforme est gérée à l’UM par Nathalie Modjeska, au sein du Service d’appui à l’international et à l’attractivité des programmes structurants de la Direction des Programmes Structurants. Gouvernance La Plateforme est dirigée par le Comité de Pilotage International (CPI) qui compte un représentant de chacune des institutions membres.Le CPI est co-présidé par un représentant du Sud et un représentant du Nord. Actuellement, Frans Swanepoel (UP) et Margreet de Lange (Université d’Utrecht) assurent ces responsabilités.Le CPI décide et supervise la mise en œuvre des orientations stratégiques et des activités globales de la Plateforme.Il se réunit virtuellement au moins une fois par an et en personne au moins une fois tous les 18 mois. Témoignages Écoutez comment la plateforme a fait une différence dans le parcours d'Ana Maria Quiroga-Arcila, étudiante au doctorat en biologie végétale, participante aux activités de la première cohorte. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuUp2sMyy_Y 17 Partenaires Europe University of Montpellier (UM) University of Barcelona (UB) University of Leeds University of York (UY) Utrecht University (UU) Wageningen University and Research (WUR) Asie Graduate School of China Academy of Agriculture Sciences (GSCAAS) China Agriculture University (CAU) Amérique du Nord Michigan State University (MSU) University Laval of Quebec University of Arizona University of California Davis (UC Davis) Amérique du Sud University of Sao Paulo (USP) Afrique University Cheikh Anta Diop of Dakar (UCAD) University of Nairobi (UONBI) University of Pretoria (UP) University of the Western Cape (UWC) Objectifs La plateforme vise à : Construire une communauté mondiale de futurs leaders de la science du développement durable grâce à l’émergence de projets Accroître l'impact de la science du développement durable grâce à une recherche inter- et transdisciplinaires et au développement d'une expertise à l'interface science-politique-société Faciliter les opportunités de recherche à plus long terme, ainsi que les perspectives de développement de carrière des jeunes chercheurs Faire progresser les pratiques de science et d’éducation ouvertes grâce au développement de nouveaux partenariats mondiaux équitables Favoriser la mise en place d’un réseau international de scientifiques sur les thématiques abordées Programme La Plateforme doctorale Nutrition – Systèmes alimentaires ambitionne de réunir au moins une fois par an la cohorte de doctorants pour des écoles de terrain et/ou des formations sur des thématiques choisies par le CPI.Chaque cohorte est constituée de 2 doctorants par établissement partenaire. Ces jeunes chercheurs, issus de domaines et de disciplines de recherche variés, sont censés suivre au moins 2 formations de la Plateforme. FOODS vise à favoriser l’interdisciplinarité et l’interculturalité à travers la diversité des doctorants qu’elle réunit. Les doctorants travaillent en groupe et échangent afin de renforcer leurs liens et de former un réseau international de futurs leaders de la science du développement durable dans les domaines de la nutrition et des systèmes alimentaires. La Plateforme offre : Des opportunités de publication de documents, création de supports de communication par les doctorants Une infrastructure virtuelle mondiale pour faciliter la discussion et le partage de documents Une visibilité de la thématique de recherche à l’international La possibilité de participer à des événements internationaux Une opportunité de réseautage pour les jeunes chercheurs La première cohorte comprend 33 étudiants de 18 nationalités et venant de 10 pays différents. Ces doctorants ont été accueillis à Montpellier du 12 au 20 mars 2024 pour la première école de terrain portant sur « Obstacles à la transformation des systèmes alimentaires : valorisation de la diversité et des perceptions interculturelles ». A l’invitation de l’Université de São Paulo, la 2ème école de terrain de la Plateforme collaborative doctorale « Nutrition – Systèmes alimentaires » soutenue dans le cadre du projet IDEES-UM2030 s’est tenue du 4 au 8 novembre 2024 sur le campus de l’ESALQ, à Piracicaba au Brésil. Une semaine intensive de présentations, rencontres, visites, échanges et réflexions a permis aux doctorants de la première cohorte d’effectuer une étude comparée entre Montpellier et Piracicaba sur les « Obstacles à la transformation des systèmes alimentaires : valorisation de la diversité et des perceptions interculturelles ». La semaine a également servi à préparer des publications attendues avant la prochaine session prévue en mai 2025 à Pretoria, Afrique du Sud.
