The Foundation launches its PODCAST and gives researchers a voice
On the occasion of its 10th anniversary, the Foundation presents its brand new podcast “En-Quête d’Humanité”!
This is an opportunity to invite researchers to share their findings on the causes, prevention and reduction of human suffering through a contextualised and refined reflection on the needs of populations.
Sciences and humanities, let’s advance the reflection!

International Conference “Humanitarian Transition: the state of a crisis-tested notion”
In 2023, the Foundation is celebrating ten years of research at the heart of vulnerability in France and abroad. To mark the occasion, it is organizing an international conference in Paris on Thursday October 26, in partnership with the IRD and Sciences Po’s School of International Affairs.
This conference will be the culmination of a series of events and publications throughout 2023, with the aim of taking stock of ten years of research and looking to the future. Throughout the day, 5 thematic roundtables will examine the concept of humanitarian transition in the light of recent major crises. The publication “L’Essentiel, 10 ans de recherche au cœur des vulnérabilités” (The Essential: 10 years of research at the heart of vulnerability), bringing together elements of capitalization and avenues for better understanding and action, will be officially launched on the same day.
This is an invitation-only event. You can register to attend remotely.
