Save the date and join us on April 3, 2025, for a marathon of nightly intellectual debates and performances centered on the theme “Human Beings for Common Good”!
For its fifth edition in Boston, Night of Ideas will be presented at the Museum of Science. This exceptional night will feature a multidisciplinary program, combining discussions on global issues, performances, workshops, and screenings. Researchers, authors, artists, and leading figures of our society will gather and discuss questions of social justice, environmental preservation, and the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare.
This year, we will explore the topic, “Human Beings for Common Good.” This theme focuses on the common good in two senses: external resources, which predate humanity, such as air and water, and resources resulting from human construction, over one or more generations, such as information, culture or scientific research. Against a backdrop of contemporary upheavals linked to the rise of new technologies, the resurgence of conflicts on the international scene and environmental risks, Boston’s Night of Ideas will invite us to question how individuals and societies can act in favor of the common good.
A free and public event, Night of Ideas will take place from 6pm to 10pm.
Presented by the Consulate General of France in Boston – Villa Albertine and the Museum of Science.
