Appel à contribution - Ouvrage collectif sur les effets rebonds

Effets rebonds : quels défis scientifiques et opérationnels pour la transition socio-écologique ?
Le caractère évolutif et pluriel du concept rend la nature de l’effet rebond difficile à appréhender et à délimiter. À ce jour, plusieurs questions peuvent se poser : un effet rebond ne résulte-t-il qu’en des conséquences dommageables relatives aux enjeux environnementaux ? ou ces conséquences peuvent-elles aussi être bénéfiques et créatrices de valeur ? quel est le lien entre effet rebond et impact socio-écologique ? comment est-il intégré aux démarches de conception ?

Autant de questions auxquelles l’ouvrage que nous projetons de publier tentera de répondre. Pour en savoir plus, nous vous invitons à participer et voir l'appel en cliquant ici

Dissemination & exploitation

D-TechnoSS at ICED Conference 2023

"Strong sustainability aspects in the ideation process" was presented by Jenny Faucheu at ICED Conference.

Organized by the Design Society and the Université de Bordeaux, the ICED Conference is a unique forum to discuss academic, educational and industrial issues and the changes required. It was a pleasure to have presented the results of our research at this conference. Our article "Strong sustainability aspects in the ideation process: a pedagogical experiment" was presented by Jenny Faucheu, member of D-TechnoSS.

Our contribution analyses the integration of a solid knowledge of sustainability within the ideation process through a pedagogical experience. We are convinced that addressing the challenges of climate change, biodiversity loss and diminishing natural resources requires a holistic understanding and practical approaches. Engineering and design students are key players.

Thank you very much to those who participated in the exchanges. For those who could not be there and know more about our results, we leave you the complete article below.

D-TechnoSS at Festival Low-Tech 2023

The Low-Tech festival, organized by the APALA association and the University of Nantes, took place from June 22 to 25. The objective was to discuss new perspectives to face current socio-environmental challenges and problems.

D-TechnoSS participated in the Low-Tech Festival organized by the APALA association and the University of Nantes Université to discuss the role of Low-Tech in building better societies.

This festival allowed the meeting and exchange of experiences and knowledge between different actors from the scientific-academic, business and professional world. The Low-Tech movement questions the appropriation of techniques through the prism of use.

Valerie and Tatiana; members of the D-TechnoSS project shared their experience on the implementation of the Low-tech approach in higher education and current perspectives in this area. Within the D-TechnoSS project we consider that it is necessary to develop alternative approaches that allow a transition to more sustainable and desirable societies. Undoubtedly the Low-Tech movement represents an interesting opportunity for this within a strong sustainability perspective.
 
Many thanks to the organizing committee APALA association and the University of Nantes

Colloque S.mart 2023

It was a pleasure for us to have presented the D-TechnoSS project at the 18th S.mart Colloquium "Générations S.mart, Collectif-Partage-Diversité"

The first intervention was in the session "Sustainability for an industry at the service of society". This was in charge of Melissa Escobar who presented her findings on the influence of students' awareness of the strong sustainability paradigm during a design process.

Luis Miguel LOPEZ made the second presentation in the plenary session. It was about the objectives, actions, and results of the D-TechnoSS project in the context of the opportunities represented by collaborative national projects.
 
This colloquium represented for us a space and opportunity for constructive exchanges with researchers, academics and industrialists.
 
Many thanks to the organizing committee GIS S.mart

Five minutes to understand science

On April 15, we had the pleasure of participating in the first day of exchange and dissemination with the Médiathèque de Troyes Champagne Métropole. 

The association of doctoral students Ellidoc of the Université de Technogie de Troyes organized this event. The objective was to meet with students, families, and the curious to share the different research projects, their progress, and results in an excellent place dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge.

This was an exncellent opportunity to talk about current socio-environmental challenges, the concept of strong sustainability and the context of our research work.
 
We thank the organizers for promoting this type of activity that allows us to bring our work closer to local communities.

Nuit Européenne de chercheur.e.s 2022

During the "European Researchers' Night 2022" Melissa had two interventions with college students.

Disseminating our research project to the public is a priority. Melissa had the opportunity to perform twice in front of college students. The first was a "Make Your Games" evening. The aim was to increase public awareness of the climate catastrophe and its anthropogenic cause. Melissa used the "La fresque du Climat" tool on the Quiz version of her. The second intervention was carried out with students from Jules Valles College where Melissa presented her research work in order to raise awareness about the current climate catastrophe.

WEBINAR | Rebound effects

The S.mart network organized last November 10, 2022 from 12:15 p.m. to 1:45 p.m. the webinar entitled "Rebound effects: what are the scientific and operational challenges for the socio-ecological transition?"
This edition was animated and presented by:
Michal Kozderka – UNISTRA
Emmanuel Caillaud – CNAM
Lou-Lyne Leconte – member of D-TECHNOSS, PhD student URCA/UTT
Tatiana Reyes – member of D-TECHNOSS, UTT
Jean-Claude Boldrini – Nantes University

In this webinar, the evolutionary and plural nature of the concept is analyzed in order to present clues for reflection on its uptake and delimitation. Currently, there are several questions on the subject: Does a rebound effect only bring harmful consequences related to environmental issues? Or can these consequences also be beneficial and create value? What is the link between the rebound effect and the socio-ecological impact? How is it integrated into the design process? Is it necessarily unpredictable or can it be apprehended through models, methods, assessment tools or simulation? Should it be approached in a multidisciplinary or transdisciplinary way?

Within the D-TECHNOSS project, the concept of rebound effects is an important element to consider in the doctoral works of Lou-Lyne and Melissa. However, we believe that the study of this concept in other disciplines will allow a better understanding of all its implications.

Doctoriales 2022

The non-academic world (companies, local and regional authorities) offers PhDs numerous opportunities to develop their career.

Our doctoral student Lou-Lyne had the opportunity to participate in the 2022 Doctoral Programs organized by the UTT and the URCA. The event took place from October 24 to 27, 2022 at the Domaine de la Forêt d'Orient. During the event, a series of training courses related to the creation of startups were carried out (creativity, innovation, market research, intellectual property, budget, communication, technical feasibility, environmental impact, etc.). During 3.5 days the participants got acquainted with the world of entrepreneurship.

This event was an opportunity for Lou-Lyne to develop new softskills that can be valued in future job interviews. It was also a time for the creation of professional networks for integration into the socioeconomic world.

DOCTORAL COLLOQUIUM EURAM 2022

The EURAM 2022 doctoral colloquium was held on June 13 and 14, 2022 as a part of the EURAM international conference ““Leading the Digital Transformation” 2022.

With the article “Understanding of consumers’ behaviourstowards ecodesigned products and services”, Lou-Lyne presented a general description of his doctoral thesis whose objective is to understand consumer behavior towards eco-designed products and services. In his presentation, Lou-Lyne exposed the contributions of the scientific community on the notions of consumer, sustainable development, sustainability strong and ecodesign, as well as their interrelationships, to better understand the consumer implications of sustainable development and ecodesign approaches. Lou-Lyne finally proposes a model detailing the expected empirical results of the research.

This was an opportunity for Lou-Lyne to showcase his research and scholarly mission to different audiences; as well as connecting with an international network of academics and other beneficiaries and users of its research.

Doctoral School 2022 "Eco-design of Complex Systems

The 9th edition of the EcoSD doctoral training "Eco-design of complex systems", or EcoDoCS'2022. took place from Monday 10 to Friday 14 October 2022 on the CentraleSupélec campus (Gif-sur-Yvette). It is organized by EcoSD via CentraleSupélec, AgroParisTech and ISAE-Supméca, financed by EcoSD and S.mart, and supported by the Design Society.

The work of our doctoral student Melissa ESCOBAR on the development of design models for strong sustainability requires specific knowledge and skills. The purpose of this training was to help participants define the scientific and industrial issues of the eco-design of complex systems (products, services, factories, socio-technical systems) and to present practical solutions for modeling, simulating, optimizing and making decisions in conception phase. It alternates theory and practice on numerous case studies or workshops.

Melissa had the opportunity to reflect and discuss her own thesis work with the other participants. This training was also an opportunity to build collaborative links with other people interested in ecological issues and socio-ecological transitions.

Meeting of the D-TECHNOSS Team in DIJON

On June 24, 2022, in the city of Dijon, the D-TECHNOSS team held its seminar and reflection workshop on strong sustainability.

 

The seminar had as its central topic of discussion the definition of the concept of strong sustainability. The first part of our meeting was focused on analyzing the concept of strong sustainability. Strong sustainability is the main axis of our project and it is necessary to be able to concretize the way to make its definition operable.

The second part of our seminar focused on the advancement of our two PhD students, Lou-Lyne LECONTE and Melissa ESCOBAR. They presented us with their first results and their work plan for the coming months. Articulating two investigations from the human sciences and engineering in the D-TECHNOSS project allows a complete vision of the problem to be studied.

3ème Journée Marketing et Développement durable

On December 9, 2021, the 3ème Journée Marketing et Développement durable (JMDD) took place in Troyes in connection with the thematic interest group (GIT) of the French Marketing Association AFM and the Institute of Services and Industries of the Future of Troyes ISIFT . Lou-Lyne LECONTE, a doctoral student within the D-TECHNOSS project, presented a first part of the results of her doctoral thesis.

With the presentation entitled "CONSUMERS AND ECODESIGN: A LITERATURE REVIEW", Lou-Lyne addresses the relationships between consumers, sustainable development and ecodesign. This synthesis reveals the difficulties of definition and the limits inherent to sustainable development and ecodesign and, therefore, raises the need to rethink these notions. In her presentation, Lou-Lyne mentions that consumer expectations illustrate a growing concern for sustainable development. However, the role of the consumer in the proper use of eco-designed products and services does not seem to benefit from the necessary consideration during the design phase, thus generating rebound effects that can destroy the potential environmental gains achieved.
