Research and territories, two worlds to connect

The webinar organized on December 1 by the “1000 doctorants pour les territoires” platform was devoted to the question of the link between the world of research and territories.

Through their own experiences, representatives of local authorities talked about the initiatives developed to bring these two worlds closer together in practice. Alexandre Mignotte, in charge of the mountain mission at Grenoble Alpes Métropole, emphasized the need, at a time of global change, to put the territory to the test of scientific questioning. In particular, he spoke of the importance of emerging collaborative schemes such as Labex ITTEM’s Perce-Neige collective of young researchers, which invite partners to engage in joint reflection. In this case, the challenges of transition in mountain regions. ” It’s important for us to get out of our offices and into the field with researchers, to help them understand the scientific links with reality “, he added.
