The Institut des hautes études de défense nationale (IHEDN) has announced its upcoming Cycle Jeunes program, scheduled to take place in Chambéry from October 27 to November 1, 2025. Aimed at students and young professionals interested in national defense and security issues, the program seeks to foster a shared culture of defense and encourage civic engagement among participants.
The Cycle Jeunes will feature an immersive educational experience divided into four training modules, allowing participants to engage deeply with significant national and international defense topics. Each session can accommodate up to 80 participants, and the selection process is highly competitive due to the expected number of applicants being three times greater than the available spots.
Registration for the program opens on June 27 and closes on July 27, 2025. The fee is set at €155 for students and job seekers, while active professionals will pay €515. This fee covers accommodation (excluding expenses in Paris), meals, local transport, and educational activities, but travel to and from the venue and personal expenses are not included. Participants will present their findings at the Savoie Prefecture on the final day of the program, highlighting the importance of engaging young citizens in discussions about national defense policies and strategies.
