Territories, Cities, Environment and Society (TVES)

Research unit - ULR 4477

Description

The scientific identity of TVES is expressed through the four words in its title (Territories, Cities, Environment & Society), through the implementation of interdisciplinary research approaches and through the emphasis given to the spatial and territorial dimensions of the objects of study. Our scientific project (2020-2024) is based on the following research themes: Theme 1 - Organizing public space, building the living together (sub-themes: Accessibility and mobilities, transports- Tourism, recreation and sports activities, ludification of territories- Heritage, cultural practices and policies); Theme 2 - Revealing inequalities, adapting / sparing the territories (sub-themes: Risks, environment and territorial vulnerabilities - Nature, environment and management of territories - Transitions and socio-environmental inequalities); Theme 3 - Thinking and creating territories (sub-themes: Innovations and development of territories- Spatial practices, policies and territorial governance- Territorial engineering, tools and uses of digital technologies, decision support). TVES also includes an internal platform of geovisualization and geographic information processing, GEOVIZLAB, a methodological and technical support unit in the field of data collection, processing, analysis and representation. We are open to all academic and industrial collaborations and propose services in line with our expertise.
