    Why this course?

    Digital technology is often seen as a lever for the transition, yet it — and AI still more so — carries major environmental impacts. This course invites you to rethink digital practices in the organisation and to embed the principles of responsible digital, giving participants the practical keys to reduce the ecological footprint of what they do and to build a sustainable digital strategy.

    Key points

    Responsible digital & frugal AI
    Sustainable digital strategy

    Objectives

    Understand the principles of eco-design applied to digital technologies.

    Master eco-innovation methods (LCA, PEF, the Brezet wheel) for digital services.

    Master the fundamentals of responsible digital and frugal AI.

    Question digital practices in the organisation against planetary boundaries.

    Draw up responsible digital action plans you can actually start.

    Content & sequence

    Introductory overview

    Definitions, scopes (manufacture, use, end of life), and the orders of magnitude of digital's environmental impacts.

    Eco-design & life cycle

    LCA (ISO 14040/14044), the PEF method and the Brezet wheel applied to digital: where to act concretely.

    Hands-on workshop

    Model the life cycle of a digital product or service and prioritise the eco-design levers.

    Eco-innovation

    Frugal eco-technologies, frugal AI, eco-management of digital services.

    Inspiring cases

    The AFNOR frugal-AI framework and the French general framework for the eco-design of digital services (ARCEP, ARCOM, ADEME) — read critically, and for what transfers.

    Roadmap

    Quick wins, indicators (digital sobriety, material footprint, AFNOR and ADEME frameworks…), 60–90 day milestones.
