In a world in transition, education is an essential vector of understanding for citizens and of commitment for political decision-makers. Supporting these environmental, economic and societal changes is at the heart of the University of Toulouse's teaching and research strategy. It is an honor to host EAIE Toulouse 2024, an emblematic and essential event in international higher education.
In the heart of the South-West of France, Toulouse is an urban area that boasts multiple attributes that seduce entrepreneurs and travelers alike. It combines a strong economic outlook, stunningly beautiful heritage, a rich culture, high-quality gastronomy. Knowledgeable and also vibrant, this is all thanks to a sun-kissed climate and a local temperament that is always inclined to celebrate and create joy. To ensure you don’t miss a thing, dare to explore the city we like to call the Ville Rose.
Occitanie is France's second-largest region in terms of surface area and fifth largest in terms of population. It is an economically and demographically dynamic region, with its urban areas concentrating its wealth and more than two-thirds of its population. Against this backdrop of strong imbalance, the implementation of the government's policy of decentralisation, development and the fight against the territorial divide is one of the major challenges facing the devolved State.
The Occitanie Region is a leading voice in higher education, research and innovation. The Region supports young people by enhancing the diversity and quality of post-high school options on offer, focusing on preparing the skills necessary for tomorrow’s workforce and developping access across its local districts. Aiming to be a leading european Region in science and technology innovation, Regional aid also comes in the form of support for research institutions.
