OECD 2020 Collaboration: Scout Visit
In Spring 2020, Art, Media and Technology sophomores at Parsons Paris will have the unique chance to create a large-scale installation for the 2020 OECD Global Anti-Corruption and Integrity Forum, a meeting where policy-makers and industry leaders will discuss the risks and opportunities technology brings in the fight against corruption. Students will focus on 2020 Forum theme “Public, private and beyond” dealing with transparency between governments, corporations and the individual.
Led by instructors Mathieu Merlet Briand and Filipe Pais, students are asked to develop projects in line with the theme #techfortrust. All concepts and prototypes will be displayed in a print book at the conference, and the selected project will be installed at full scale during the Forum in front of the 2000 visitors’ Forum audience.
