Le CEFISES propose chaque année une série de séminaires réunissant des intervenants locaux et internationaux.
Le format encourage à la fois les conférences de longue durée et les discussions approfondies (une heure de présentation et une heure de questions et réponses).
Ci-dessous, vous trouverez une liste des événements organisés antérieurement par le CEFISES. Les enregistrements des séances sont disponibles via la chaîne YouTube du centre.
