About “The Night of the Ideas” (“La nuit des idées”)
Initiated in 2016 during an exceptional evening which brought together in Paris great French and international voices invited to dialogue around the major issues of our time, the “Night of Ideas” very quickly imposed itself on the French and international agenda. Each year, on the last Thursday of January, the Institut français invites all places of culture and knowledge, in France and on the five continents, to celebrate together the free circulation of ideas and knowledge by proposing, on the same evening, conferences, meetings, forums and round tables, but also screenings, artistic performances and youth workshops, around a theme that everyone declines in their own way.
