The CIREC aims to provide a unifying framework for individual and collective initiatives which are multiplying in the field of research-creation in the social sciences. It works to widely disseminate this type of research and thus to create bridges between science, culture and society.
Conceived as a collective space conducive to exchanges (je crois que ce n’est pas le mot mais je trouve pas mieux) dialogue?, debates and the production of common knowledge, the CIREC intends to develop through the reception je crois vraiment que c’est ça and organization of conferences, seminars, workshops, exhibitions and film screenings.
A research documentary series
behind the scenes of urban agriculture in the development project
Directed by Emilie Balteau as part of a postdoctoral fellowship at the Chaire Aménagement le Grand Paris at the Ecole d'Urbanisme de Paris, under the scientific direction of Taoufik Souami (Univ. Eiffel – LATTS) and Ana Torres (UPEC-Lab'Urba). A second episode is in preparation.
"The developer and the farmer" is a documentary series on urban agriculture in urban development. The first part of this series, "l'Envol" goes behind the scenes of the project to create the Ferme de l'Envol, 70 ha, in the context of the reconversion of Base 217, on the territory of Cœur Essonne Agglomération, 30km south of Paris. The film follows the actors: the developer, the three farmers, the farm workers, the restaurateur, the project manager, the head of the AMAP... All try, in the middle of a 300 ha development project, to organize the farm to meet the challenges of ecological transition, maintaining social ties, and economic balance. We discover the multiple facets of this concrete organization with hands in the earth and fingers on the keyboard.

Welcome everyone!
The Magdalen Islands archipelago is a Quebec jewel that enjoys an enviable reputation, but it is at the mercy of climate change, which is causing major upheavals in these coastal territories of the North Atlantic.
The Solastalgies créatrices project, led by Magali Uhl, professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Quebec in Montreal ( UQAM ), presents a unique approach to capturing the experience of these transformations, starting from the point of view of the people who experience them daily.

TOTAL SCREEN
The UQAM Design Center presents the exhibition TOTAL SCREEN which welcomes for the first time in Canada the photographs of the philosopher Jean Baudrillard, placed in dialogue with the works of Adam Basanta, Charlie Doyon, Clint Enns, Mishka Henner & Vaseem Bhatti, Penelope Umbrico and Xuan Ye. The omnipresence of screens in our societies and our daily lives is questioned in order to reveal the topicality and the critical, even subversive, potential of the philosopher's thought, used and diverted by several generations of artists and designers of the international scene.
