Conference “2040, j’y vais!” with Jean Pierre Goux

In October 2024, we welcomed writer Jean-Pierre Goux. Our local guest was Sarah Koller, PhD in environmental sciences from the University of Lausanne.

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.
