The LIVES Centre, at the Institute of Social Sciences at the University of Lausanne, is a reference center for research, analysis, and training that studies the effects of the economy and post-industrial society on the evolution of situations of vulnerability through longitudinal and comparative studies. It aims to better understand the emergence and evolution of vulnerability and how to overcome it in order to foster the emergence of innovative socio-political measures. These fundamental aspects of the research conducted at the Centre aim to give a global picture of the trajectories of individuals, taking into account the interactions between the different fields of life, such as family, gender, work, health, age, etc. In addition, researchers are studying the influence of societal structures, which can facilitate or hinder the mobilization of individuals' resources. |
