"For this 41st edition, we had in fact chosen to deal with the horizons towards which successful transitions could lead us in 2040. The Covid-19 crisis has confirmed our choice: to re-enchant the world and the territories of tomorrow has never been so compelling. No doubt the world after, to imagine today, does not completely overlap with the futures that we still had in mind yesterday. The world after that is obviously the organization of life after confinement and with the virus. It's economic recovery, the fight against the social crisis. Projecting towards 2040 may seem, in this context, inappropriate. However, the risk of favoring short-term economic recovery, with the recipes and projects of the past, to the detriment of medium and long-term social and ecological issues, makes this forward-looking commitment more necessary than ever.
