ALIÉNOR D’AQUITAINE
In 2022, the Alliance Universitaire Aliénor d’Aquitaine (AAUA) is set up to coordinate and structure higher education and research in Poitiers and the surrounding area.
A shared ambition to enhance the reputation of the Poitiers university site
The Alliance universitaire Aliénor d’Aquitaine brings together 13 actors from the Poitiers site, sharing a common strategy to respond in an interdisciplinary and partnership-based way to three sustainable development objectives identified by the United Nations :
- “Health and well-being” (ODD 3),
- “Quality Education” (ODD 4),
- Sustainable cities and communities (ODD 11).
These three societal challenges are the signature of the Aliénor d’Aquitaine University Alliance.

- Develop resources for more dynamic, coordinated research to meet major scientific challenges;
