2nd edition of the International Conference Sustainable Transition of Organizations and Communities

2024, october 9th-10th

General context and argumentary

Climate change is currently a major global issue that impacts the environment and society in many ways. The great damages caused by climate change (floods, droughts, violent storms, hurricanes, rising sea levels, acidification and warming of the oceans, intense heat waves, etc.) have deteriorated natural resources and ecosystems.

Climate change affects all organizations, private and public, large or small. For companies, climate change affects their entire value chains, making them vulnerable to weather phenomena often beyond the control of managers. The negative impact on the health of employees is reflected in a drop in productivity, in tensions in working relationships within the company and/or with customers, and in an increase in the risk of accidents.

Global warming also calls on public authorities, territories and public organizations and the citizen to think about measures to combat this phenomenon, the reconquest of biodiversity, the rational use of resources, and the reduction of environmental health risks. .  Everyone is now called upon to fundamentally review their way of producing, consuming and living. The integration of sustainable development practices allows organizations to contribute to the global fight against climate change while making them more resilient, flexible and competitive.

This conference aims to engage in global reflection to discuss the risks of climate change for different stakeholders (businesses, administrations, communities, government, etc.). It will bring together scientists and experts, socio-economic actors, elected officials and institutional leaders, representatives of the academic community, students, think tanks, and NGOs with the aim of bringing the academic world closer to the professional world on this theme. which gains importance and relevance over time. This event is also an opportunity to question more specifically the approaches to mitigating climate change, and the adaptation strategies of companies and organizations in different sectors (agriculture, transport, tourism, energy, commerce, etc.) nationally and internationally.
