Lea Metke joined Ifri in 2014 as a project officer for the Study Committee on French–German Relations (Cerfa). She holds a master’s degree in European studies and a bachelor’s degree in European studies and applied foreign languages from Sorbonne University.
She has been in charge of the partnership between Ifri and OCP Policy Center since 2014. The cooperation between both institutions aims at a large spectrum of research including regional and cross-sectional thematics and is based on two pillars: the organization of conferences and the publication of policy-oriented papers. Since January 2016, Metke is project officer to the director of Ifri, where she is particularly involved in activities with Ifri’s public and private partners and the development of Ifri’s think tank network. She teaches Franco–German relations: between reconciliation, partnership, and crisis at Sciences Po Paris.
