The Open Institute For Digital Transformations

Launched in 2023, the Open Institute for Digital Transformations promotes a European approach grounded in democratic values: one that engages critically and constructively with technology, remaining vigilant while staying open to the opportunities that artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies have to offer.

The Open Institute supports the university's initiatives on these themes, with the following objectives:

• Define and promote Sciences Po's unique perspective on digital transformations by giving visibility and coherence to existing initiatives
• Reinforce research on and with digital technologies to make Sciences Po a research university of reference in the humanities and social sciences on the challenges of digital transformations for our democracies
• Foster an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary dialogue on this topic, both through Sciences Po's traditional disciplines and in collaboration with the other scientific disciplines
• Strengthen the educational offer to provide all students, across all programmes and throughout the continuum of studies, with training on digital challenges and practical skills
• Contribute to a new policy of disseminating and promoting knowledge through open science, engagement in public debate and finding new pathways to involve the public in our research

The Institute for Environmental Transformations

Launched in November 2023, the Institute for Environmental Transformations is based on three strong stakes: proposing an ambitious transformation agenda necessary to support the change in the way of considering the production of knowledge and the training of future generations; promote the contribution of the human and social sciences to enable contemporary societies to operate in a 'just and safe' space while responding to the persistent problems they face; build on strong partnerships to enable increased exchanges with other sectors of science.
