Until April 5, 2025 - At the Syndicat Potentiel Strasbourg, a place for artistic creation, encounters and experiments.

Syndicat Potentiel's activities are mainly in the cultural field, in a broad perimeter that integrates a particular attention to different cultures. These are seen as rich resources, all the more so when put into dialogue. The central aim of such a perimeter is to support and present to the public the often collaborative research and work of artists and researchers capable of shifting the boundaries of both the art world and scientific research.

With the participation of Nikolas Fouré, lecturer and researcher atENSA Normandie, as part of the exhibition "Mise en récit, en fiction, en jeu et en espace de la recherche artistique" (Narrative, fiction, play and space in artistic research), in which he looks back on his nomadic teaching practice "le milieu et ses mesures" (the environment and its measurements), carried out over a period of six years.

How can we reconcile the urgency of climate change with the preparation of a fairer future for us all? How will we live in 2050? How can we reduce our footprint and achieve carbon neutrality? How can we adapt to climate change?

These issues are at the heart of the reflections undertaken by the Rouen Normandy Metropolis as it draws up its Schéma de Cohérence Territoriale - Air Energie Climat (SCOT-AEC).

To continue and amplify the momentum of territorial mobilization initiated at COP21, the Metropole is launching COP Rouen 2030 and setting up a Climate Action Network to help prepare the Air Energy Climate action plan.

On the morning program:

- Climate change: Challenges for our region

- COP Rouen 2030: what is it? How can I contribute?

- Ecological transition, societal transformations and respect for human rights: what recommendations for the SCOT-AEC? Workshops on 5 cross-cutting themes (sobriety, sustainable prosperity, resilience through the prism of social cohesion, environmental justice and paradigm shift)

For those who wish, 2-ton workshops will be held in the afternoon (registration required).
