Ius & Politia Foundation Innovation Award

Academy of Moral and Political Sciences

On Monday, November 17, 2025, at the Institut de France, Sandrine Grenier, Senior Lecturer in Private Law and Researcher at LICeM, and Sandy Blanco, Professor of Cinema and Audiovisual Studies at the University Institute of Technology in Béziers, received the 2025 Innovation Award, which was unanimously awarded to them by the Ius & Politia Foundation, a foundation for teaching and research in law and political science, housed by theAcademy of Moral and Political Sciences.

Each year, the Academy recognizes the best works or those that bring recognition to the most meritorious actions. It does so in the spirit of the Conventionnels when they created the Institut de France: "To follow [...] scientific and literary works that will serve the general good and the glory of the Republic" (Law of 3 Brumaire, Year IV).

This innovation award recognizes "a remarkable educational or institutional initiative" as part of their project "Learning Differently: Law and Cinema," which offers a new and fun approach to teaching law through the production of short and medium-length films that draw on the power of the cinematic image.

" Learning Differently: Law and Cinema" is led by Sandrine Grenier, Senior Lecturer in Private Law at the Béziers University Institute of Technology (IUT), Marketing Techniques Department, member of LICeM, and Sandy Blanco, Professor of Cinema and Audiovisual Studies at the Béziers IUT.

The Licem congratulates them on this distinction, which comes on top of the Innovation Award awarded bythe University of Montpellier in 2025.
