Planétarium #33 avec Rokhaya Diallo / Mélissa Laveaux
Discussions & Debates
The À l’école de l’Anthropocène Festival returns for its 8th edition from June 12 to 14, 2026, in Lyon. The result of a long-standing collaboration between Cité Anthropocène and October Octopus, this festival of ideas brings together science, the arts, and society to address the challenges posed by global change and explore the restorative possibilities available to us.
In total, there will be nine masterclasses, a seminar, a philosophy workshop, a radio program, and three evening events, featuring guests who are recognized experts in their fields (Rokhaya Diallo, Philippe Sands, Bénédicte Savoy, and Loïc Hecht) and exceptional partnerships (notably with the Centre Pompidou and its “Planétarium” program, brought to Lyon for the occasion).
