What keeps you up at night?
What goes on in the heads of leaders faced with the world's major challenges? What keeps them up at night? How do they fall asleep when they have so much responsibility? How do they get to sleep when there is so much at stake? What gives them insomnia?
International leaders and decision makers are invited into the studios of the Sciences Po School of Journalism. We believe that students will be able to hear their voice and be inspired now and in the future.

DebtTalks
How do countries incur in debt? And why does debt become unsustainable? How debt crises are triggered, and how a small nation managed to bring the Euro area on the edge of collapse? I am Paola Subacchi, and this is DebtTalks, the podcast of Sciences Po Chair in Sovereign Debt and Finance. With my guests I’ll be discussing the economics and politics of debt, exploring past and current episodes of debt distress, examining legal controversies, and much more. Join us for the latest insights and stay tuned on DebtTalks.

Conversations with Sergei Guriev
Do you want to understand better the change that is happening in our societies and to our societies? The environmental transformation, the digital transformation, the challenges to our democracies coming from populism and authoritarian leaders, the rise of inequalities discrimination, globalisation, the return of History in geopolitics?

Sans transition (in French)
A podcast about ecological transformation
How do you grow up, find your place and look to the future when the planet is burning? How can you find your place when you are aware of the climate crisis? Young students about to enter the job market are faced with these questions. This is what prompted Sciences Po to create an "Ecological Culture" course, an intensive week to give students the keys to thinking, deciding and moving the situation forward.
