Atelier SEnS
One the last day, we hosted a one-day Atelier SEnS workshop about political/personal questions, including one's personal values and how they relate to our work as researchers. This workshop for young scientists or engineers (called Atelier SEnS: science, environment, societies) was held by Sophie Quinton, Simon Castellan, and Noé Lahaye. The workshop provides an opportunity, especially for PhD students, to think about defining decisions for their future life and career. More information can be found here.
The SEnS workshop has been designed to provide tools and resources for this purpose, to a group of 5 to 15 people working in academia. It aims to offer a venue to collectively discuss the consequences of our research, the values that it conveys, and more generally how scientific research fits in the Anthropocene; provide an introduction to science and technology studies, in particular to the philosophy, history, and sociology of science; and initiate a collective construction of a social and environmental responsibility of research. The objective is not to reach a consensus between the participants, but rather to provide everyone with the opportunity to reflect and take a stance on current environmental issues in a respectful and constructive setting. By confronting ideas and sharing knowledge, the goal is then to find common ground.
