Practical information
With Jean-Claude Desenclos, Scientific Director, Institut de Veille Sanitaire (InVS), Monique Eloit, adjunct Director, World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), and Didier Houssin, interministerial delegate to the fight against avian influenza.
If the threat of the A/H1N1 influenza could move away from the Northern hemisphere in the coming summer months, the current situation in developing countries, the probability of a comeback of the disease this autumn and the move to the highest phase of pandemic alert are all grounds to remain prudent. Do we have the means to contain the spread of the disease? More largely, what lessons, in sanitary, psychological and institutional terms, have we learned from recent experiences? What conclusions can we draw on the progress achieved and yet to be achieved in view of an effective global management of pandemics?
Debates will be moderated by Aline Leboeuf, Head of the Health&Environment programme.

Reinventing Coordination in an Age of Fragmentation 3rd Paris Geoeconomic Dialogue
The world economy is being reordered. The certainties of the post-Cold War era, open trade, dollar centrality, predictable multilateral coordination, are giving way to a landscape shaped by rivalry between the United States and China, the weaponization of interdependence, and a scramble to secure supply chains, technologies and critical resources. What once looked like a stable architecture now appears fragile, contested, and in places actively being dismantled.
