2040, I’m going!” conference with Cyril Dion

In January 2025, we welcomed writer and director Cyril Dion to the Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne. Our guests, City Councillor Natacha Litzistorf and Katia Delay, Director of the Maison du récit in Lausanne, brought a local perspective.

The “2040, j’y vais!” conferences are interactive and co-organized by Hub des possibles, the booksellers Payotbooksellers, the Vidy-Lausanne and the Alumnil network.

The “2040, j’y vais!” conferences help to create spaces for dialogue and encounters between authors and the general public, in order to cultivate a posture of lucid optimism.

The aim is to enable citizens and readers to :

  • to better understand today’s challenges
  • connect with their emotions and open up their imaginations
  • explore possible futures and be inspired by stories that reinforce hope and stimulate action.
