Posted on March 7, 2025

Building on the notable success of the regional conference on agroecology: Science and Policy, held on January 29, 30, and 31, 2025, in Tunis as part of the NATAE project, the Sahara and Sahel Observatory (OSS) and CIHEAM Montpellier signed a framework partnership agreement in Tunis on March 5. This agreement reflects the desire of both intergovernmental organizations to continue and strengthen the fruitful collaboration established over recent months.

This partnership will be reflected in several actions, including: supervision of interns and PhD students, exchanges of scientists, development of joint research and innovation projects, creation of joint training programs and educational modules to build the capacities of regional stakeholders, and joint participation in international scientific and technical networks to enhance the visibility and impact of their shared initiatives.

CIHEAM Montpellier Committed to Combating Workplace Harassment and Discrimination!

Posted on March 4, 2025

On February 19, 2025, CIHEAM Montpellier had the pleasure, for the second consecutive year, of welcoming Mr. Grégory KOUCHIT, Social and Organizational Psychologist, for a dynamic and interactive session on the theme “Combating Harassment and Discrimination in the Workplace.”

During this workshop, our Master’s students participated in a team quiz that allowed them to analyze and respond to real-life situations related to various topics concerning workplace harassment and discrimination. Through this fun and collaborative format, they explored essential strategies and tools to help create a respectful and caring work environment. Thanks to Mr. Grégory KOUCHIT’s expertise, the session provided participants with valuable insights to identify, prevent, and take action against these issues, further strengthening our commitment to fostering an inclusive and safe campus.

CIHEAM Montpellier warmly thanks Mr. Grégory KOUCHIT for his contribution and knowledge-sharing, helping raise awareness and promote responsibility within our student community.
