The Académie des technologies is now accepting applications for the 2026 cohort of its “Académie des technologies avec les jeunes” program.

This program will bring together 50 young people aged 18 to 35 (M/F) from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds to engage in collective reflection on major contemporary scientific and technological issues.

🧠 2026 theme: “Rethinking science and technology through art, nature, and the collective”

The 2026 cohort will explore five main areas of reflection:

  • Shared and sustainable technical progress
  • The arts as a means of imagining and re-enchanting the world
  • Nature as a source of inspiration (symbiosis, bio-inspiration)
  • The role of the collective in technological decisions
  • The pooling of scientific knowledge and cultures

Terms of engagement

  • 1 to 2 hours of remote collaborative work every two weeks
  • A weekend of face-to-face meetings from September 11 to 13, 2026 at the Transition Campus

The program aims to establish an intergenerational dialogue between young participants and members of the Academy, in order to generate concrete ideas and proposals, particularly for public decision-makers.

Applications

  • 📌 Applications must be submitted before March 8, 2026, at 11:59 p.m.
  • Applicants may submit a CV and/or cover letter (written, audio, or video formats accepted)
  • Feedback to applicants expected before March 18, 2026
