Scientific research serving social issues
The team
Enhancing the value of human and social sciences to shed light on changes in our societies
NARRAU is inspired by narro, which means to tell in Latin, reflecting our desire to work towards a better understanding of contemporary social dynamics. To achieve this, we work for a better quality of information and for the valorisation of knowledge in human and social sciences.
By linking society and research at every stage, NARRAU is a response to this social problem.
The scientific board
The scientific validity of our projects and investigative practices is a priority. This is why NARRAU has surrounded itself with a multidisciplinary team of researchers. They advise us in the conduct of our projects and accompany us on the ethical issues associated with the sensitive nature of the subjects we deal with.

Our partners
Our team surrounds itself with partners (researchers, private, cultural and associative actors) for their knowledge of a theme and/or a study area. Our will is to promote local knowledge in order to allow a better circulation of ideas. Our partnerships take many forms (access to the field, data restitution, co-productions).
