Nicolas Besson (*1970) is a pastor of the Reformed Church of Vaud and holds a degree in theology and a MAS in educational sciences from the Universities of Lausanne and Geneva. He worked for 15 years as a parish pastor in Morges and 11 years as head of human resources for his cantonal church. Today he divides his time between chaplaincy in schools in Nyon, interventions at the University of Lausanne in the context of the training of leaders of religious communities and the implementation of a project to enhance the value of people and their contribution in companies. He is passionate about the question of meaning in daily life and, as such, is a fervent visitor to the Visions du Réel festival.
