  Eco-Campus Summer School on Infiltration Processes

  You are a master or PhD student in the field of stormwater management, urban hydrology or ecological engineering? You are interested in how infiltration processes can be transferred into modelling? You want to exchange with students from different countries in your field and get in touch with internationally recognised researchers in the field? Then sign up for the Eco-campus summer school on infiltration processes from July 4th to 6th, 2022 in Lyon, France

  PREDITOX SCHOOL 2021

  In anticipation of what could happen with the sanitary context, as well as to allow international scientists to follow the summer school, we have planned an exclusively virtual session in combination with participants on site. Please note, however, that this virtual attendance will not allow for participation in the 'expertise' slots at the end of each day; there are only for those who will be in person on site.

  PREDITOX 2020

  The winter school aims to help ecotoxicologists, regulators, managers, NGOs and other stakeholders to improve their skills on modeling and on statistical inference, especially for a better analysis of experimental data from their biological tests.
  
  This winter school is supported by H₂O'Lyon.

  Dijon - Mediterranean by canoe

  Follow the journey of two students who travel from the Norge River to the Mediterranean by canoe

► Collective work OTHU : Urban Stormwater Management

► Field course : Geoarcheology and continental hydrosystems

Internship proposed within the framework of the Géonum (Digital Geographies) master's degree for the academic year 2022-2023.
This is an original approach to training through research, as students will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in an interdisciplinary research project, to carry out fieldwork and to experiment with acquisition techniques and innovative methodologies during their M1 and M2.

In order to do this, a flipped pedagogy will be implemented: M1 and M2 students will be integrated simultaneously in this field placement. During M1, students will discover the project, the field, the implications, acquire initial data and observe the M2 students who will attempt to answer the research question. A feedback seminar with the M1 and M2 students is planned.

The research project associated with this teaching approach is "Trajectories of fluvial socio-systems in the Paleo-anthropocene", supported by the EUR H2O'Lyon.

Length : September 2022 to February 2023

  La Folie Kilomètre - (UNE NUIT)

  La Folie Kilomètre is a collective of creation in public space founded in 2011. Their project (Une Nuit), created in 2018 and selected by the "Culture of Risk" call for projects of the Rhône Plan, invites spectators in 5 cities of the Lyon basin to live a whole night between reality and fiction in a gymnasium fitted out as an emergency accommodation centre invested by various crisis management services.
  
  H₂O'Lyon is supporting this project by funding part of the scientific monitoring, the aim of which is to determine the arrangements of this innovative approach and the possible effects on the perceptions of the river and flood risk. This experience feedback will thus be able to feed the training courses that address environmental education issues.
