A PLACE FOR DEBATES
Since its creation, the Cité internationale has welcomed several generations of young talent who have become great intellectual figures. Today it is a place of life for youth engaged in building a new world and continues to be a place for debates where you can reflect on solutions to the big questions of our time.
Intellectual and cultural abundance
A week of debates on the major challenges to peace. An opportunity for the 12,000 or so residents living on campus and the general public to debate in the presence of researchers and personalities.
Citéscope is the online cultural agenda of the Cité internationale. It is dedicated to world cultures and lists all the rich and varied programming offered within the different houses on the campus. Open to everyone, these concerts, exhibitions, performances, guided tours, and talks on major issues of the contemporary world are mostly free of charge.
The multidisciplinary and international Researchers’ Club is part of the policy of welcoming researchers in scientific mobility. A series of debates, a cultural programme and thematic meetings enable French and international post-doctoral researchers living or working in the Île-de-France region to meet and exchange ideas.
The programming of the Théâtre de la Cité internationale places strong emphasis on emerging creation. The production office Prémisses, affiliated with the theatre, supports early-career artistic teams; talks and debates bring into dialogue the invention of artistic forms and the perception of transformations in the world…
A miniature version of the United Nations, the Cité internationale has always aimed to be a “school of human relations for peace.” Designed by and for residents, the Diplo Cité initiative seeks to create a space for exchange, debate, and learning, focused on the international challenges of the 21st century. Through regular meetings, this space enables residents to develop a genuine diplomatic culture within a participatory and creative environment.
THE RESIDENTS’ INITIATIVE FUND: AID FOR RESIDENT CREATION
In order to allow residents to realise their artistic, cultural, citizen or even sportive projects, the Cité internationale puts out a call twice a year for projects to support resident initiatives. It allows selected projects to benefit from financial aid from the Residents’ Initiative Fund. The projects can be on various themes such as peace, sport, digitalisation, culture, citizenship, the environment and solidarity. They must involve several houses on campus and encourage residents to meet and have exchanges.
