DESCRIPTION:Les Rencontres de l’EDAR is the yearly EDAR event adressed t
 o the Doctoral program in Architecture and Sciences of the City community.
 \nThe 2023 edition\, entitled Science and Society\, will invite doctoral 
 students to reflect on the social and 'operational' value of research\, re
 ferring to their own experience as young scholars – whether this experie
 nce is related to their phd dissertation or to other scientific activities
  they have been involved in.\n\nIn the domains of architecture and science
 s of the city\, research can have a social impact\, for example\, by trans
 forming the socio-technical conditions of production of space\, by provoki
 ng shifts in mentalities and imaginaries\, or by critically assessing fact
 s and data. As in other disciplinary domains\, the ‘translation’ of sc
 ientific results into forms and languages that allow for their wide dissem
 ination is also a main issue.\n\nDebating on the social and operational va
 lue of EDAR research seems to us particularly appropriate in a context whe
 re “serving all sectors of our society” is a priority mission of EPFL\
 , and where the SNF is explicitly committed to promoting the encounter bet
 ween knowledge and society\, both through ‘Agora’-type formats and by 
 defending the principle of free access to research results – thus on the
  basis of an ethical principle that binds the scientist to the public that
  funds him.\n\nThrough the lens of Science and Society\, the 7th Les Re
 ncontres de l’EDAR will allow us to take a snapshot on this issue on ED
 AR and\, at the same time\, to consider it in the light of the social and 
 scientifical mission both of EPFL\, namely its doctoral research\, and acc
 ording to the nature of our disciplines\, between human and social science
 s and the sciences of engineer. The discussions will be fuelled by the te
 stimonies of actors of the academic-scientific policy and of senior schola
 rs who will lecture and talk presenting their positions on the topic.\n\n9
