From November 16 to 17, 2023, Labex ITTEM’s Rencontres will bring together all its partners for a time of sharing and reflection on the collaborations to be invented to build a mountain in transition.
The next Rencontres du Labex ITTEM will take place at the Château d’Arvillard in Savoie, north of the Belledonne massif. They will be an opportunity for Labex ITTEM’s researchers and partners – academic, institutional, associative and private – to (re)get to know each other, to discover the forms and substance of existing collaborations on different projects, and to express their wishes for future partnerships and work themes.
” Through their scientific work, Labex ITTEM researchers question the “transitional capacities” of mountain territories, today marked by transformative hesitation, between bifurcation and conservatism. These annual meetings are an opportunity to share this academic knowledge and these methods outside the scientific community, but also to confront them with those who live and work there “, explains Mikaël Chambru, scientific coordinator of Labex ITTEM.
A convivial highlight in the life of Labex ITTEM, spontaneous discussions are often the starting point for new collaborations. They are also an excellent opportunity for researchers to get away from their academic jargon.

Transition in mountain areas: building collaborations, with whom, for what?
