Since 2017, the PAUSE programme, led by the Coll\u00e8ge de France, has provided a refuge for scientists and artists forced into exile.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/p>\n Today, our mission is under threat.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Confronted to an unprecedented influx of applications \u2014 over 100 new requests this fall alone, often for people whose lives are at risk \u2014 the programme has funding to support only about fifteen of them. The exceptional funding promised by the State has still not been released and may be frozen. Without immediate financial support, PAUSE will be forced to turn away brilliant candidates who are ready to be welcomed into our institutions.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n What is at stake is not just humanitarian aid: we risk suspending a public policy of general interest, a strong commitment to academic freedom, independent creation, and the safeguarding of endangered knowledge.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n We are issuing an urgent call for support.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n PAUSE must raise \u20ac3 million by November 15 to meet these unprecedented needs.<\/p>\n Without this support, artists and scientists whose lives are in danger will not be able to find refuge.<\/strong><\/p>\n The situation in Gaza illustrates this urgency: 25 PAUSE fellows and their families remain trapped<\/strong>, despite everything being in place to welcome them to France. The suspension of evacuations is keeping them in conditions of extreme survival. The death of the architect Ahmed Shamia last May<\/strong> is a tragic reminder of the cost of this prolonged waiting.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n PAUSE needs your support\u2014now.<\/strong> \u00a0” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Depuis 2017, le programme PAUSE, port\u00e9 par le Coll\u00e8ge de France, offre un refuge aux scientifiques et artistes contraints \u00e0 l\u2019exil. Po\u00e8tes, biologistes, psychiatres, cin\u00e9astes, math\u00e9maticiennes, architectes, canc\u00e9rologues<\/strong>… Ces femmes et ces hommes venus de zones de guerre ou de r\u00e9pression (Ukraine, Afghanistan, Russie, Soudan, Syrie, Palestine, Iran, Congo\u2026) poursuivent leurs travaux dans nos universit\u00e9s et institutions culturelles. Leur pr\u00e9sence est un enrichissement inestimable pour notre vie intellectuelle, scientifique et d\u00e9mocratique. <\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Notre action est aujourd’hui fragilis\u00e9e. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Face \u00e0 un afflux sans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent de demandes \u2013 plus de 100 nouvelles candidatures cet automne, souvent pour des personnes en danger de mort\u2013, le programme dispose des financements n\u00e9cessaires <\/strong>pour en<\/strong> soutenir seulement une quinzaine<\/strong>. L\u2019enveloppe exceptionnelle promise par l\u2019\u00c9tat n\u2019a toujours pas \u00e9t\u00e9 vers\u00e9e et pourrait \u00eatre gel\u00e9e. Sans soutien financier imm\u00e9diat, PAUSE sera contraint de laisser de c\u00f4t\u00e9 des profils brillants, pr\u00eats \u00e0 \u00eatre accueillis dans nos institutions.<\/p>\n Ce n\u2019est pas seulement une aide humanitaire que nous risquons de suspendre : c\u2019est une politique publique d\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, un engagement fort en faveur de la libert\u00e9 acad\u00e9mique, de la cr\u00e9ation ind\u00e9pendante, de la sauvegarde de savoirs menac\u00e9s. <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nous lan\u00e7ons un appel urgent \u00e0 la mobilisation. <\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PAUSE doit r\u00e9unir 3 millions d\u2019euros d’ici le 15 novembre <\/strong>pour r\u00e9pondre aux besoins sans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent. <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n La situation \u00e0 Gaza illustre cette urgence : 25 laur\u00e9ats PAUSE et leurs familles y sont toujours bloqu\u00e9s, bien que tout soit pr\u00eat pour les accueillir en France.<\/strong> La suspension des \u00e9vacuations les maintient dans des conditions de survie extr\u00eames. Le d\u00e9c\u00e8s du laur\u00e9at Ahmed Shamia en mai dernier rappelle tragiquement ce que co\u00fbte cette attente.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PAUSE a besoin de votre soutien, maintenant. <\/strong>Il y a urgence \u00e0 garantir les moyens de poursuivre notre mission. Faire un don \u00e0 PAUSE<\/strong>, c\u2019est permettre \u00e0 des chercheurs et artistes en exil de continuer \u00e0 enrichir notre vie intellectuelle, scientifique et culturelle : c\u2019est agir pour l\u2019avenir, pour l\u2019attractivit\u00e9 de la France, et pour qu’elle puisse rester une terre de refuge et d\u2019excellence.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider

Today, facing unprecedented needs, PAUSE’s ability to act is under strain.
Poets, biologists, psychiatrists, filmmakers, mathematicians, architects, cancer researchers… These women and men, coming from war zones or regions under repression (Ukraine, Afghanistan, Russia, Sudan, Syria, Palestine, Iran, Congo…), continue their work within our universities and cultural institutions. Their presence is an invaluable enrichment to our intellectual, scientific, and democratic life.<\/p>\n
There is an urgent need to secure the means to continue our mission. Donating to PAUSE means enabling exiled researchers and artists to keep contributing to our intellectual, scientific, and cultural life.<\/strong>
It means acting for the future, for France\u2019s attractiveness, and for its ability to remain a land of refuge and excellence.<\/p>\n
Sans ce soutien, des artistes et des scientifiques dont la vie est menac\u00e9e ne pourront pas \u00eatre accueillis.<\/strong><\/p>\n
