Our planet and society are governed by networks, whether biological, ecological, related to energy, transportation, climate, or technology. We are continually engaged in interactions with these networks. In the context of energetic or ecological and societal transitions, it is essential to examine the positive or negative effects of these interactions. Additionally, it is crucial to explore the influence of the growing role that networks will play and the futures they will shape, open or close. 

To address these issues, a multidisciplinary approach is essential, particularly between the technological sciences, the humanities and life sciences. The symposium will be organized around five major themes, alternating between discussions, plenary lectures and roundtables: 

Focus 1: Ecological networks: biodiversity and ecological transition 

Focus 2: Social networks: what dynamics are transforming lifestyles, representations and modes of action? 

Focus 3: Energy networks: What socio-technical changes for what futures? 

Focus 4 : Networks of universities in transition: role, impact, difficulties, drivers?
