The EATLP Congress will take place at the Manufacture des Tabacs campus of Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3, located in the Monplaisir district in the 8th arrondissement of Lyon.
The campus occupies the buildings of a former tobacco factory built in the early twentieth century and later transformed into a university site. The industrial complex operated from 1927 until 1988, before being fully rehabilitated and converted into a modern academic campus in the 1990s.
Today, the site is recognised as a remarkable example of twentieth-century industrial architecture that has been successfully integrated into a contemporary university environment.
The campus now hosts teaching and research activities in law, economics, management, and the humanities. It forms one of the main sites of Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3 and welcomes thousands of students each year.
With its large courtyards, lecture halls and modern facilities, the Manufacture des Tabacs provides an ideal setting for international academic events.
