2025 IdA Congress (1, 2 and 3 October 2025)

1.       The Institut des Amériques Congress - Presentation

Every year since 2002, the Institut des Amériques (IdA) organises an international conference on a key issue.

In order to tackle a wider range of themes and to promote a broader dialogue in the field of inter-American or comparatist studies, the IdA choses from now on to organise an ambitious biennal congress. Open to new paradigms in social sciences and to knowledge transformation in public policies, the congress also includes artistic and cultural events.

In 2023, the Congress was held in June in Lyon, at Lumière Lyon 2 University and Jean Moulin Lyon 3 University.

In 2025, Campus Condorcet in Aubervilliers has been selected to host this scientific event from October 1st to 3rd. Aimed at promoting interdisciplinary approaches as much as possible, this event will bring together speakers specializing in the United States, Canada, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
