Laboratoire Fabrique de Pensée Critique (LFPC)

This ambition is grounded in an interdisciplinary approach at the intersection of the social sciences and engineering sciences, within the field of Science and Technology Studies (STS). The laboratory develops participatory research, open to collaborations with civil society and rooted in local territories, structured around two main focus areas:

  • technologies and transitions

  • AI, democracy, and social justice
