2023 THEME

PARTICIPATORY, INCLUSIVE, AND ECO-SOCIAL HEALTH: HOW TO INNOVATE AND BUILD BRIDGES BETWEEN DEMOCRACY, ENVIRONMENT AND OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS?

More than ever, the interconnections between health and the environment are recognized and represent a burning issue for citizens. But the power to influence social and natural environments depends closely on the existence of democratic institutions that make room for the voices of individuals and groups. To address these questions, this new series of conferences will address the links between, on the one hand, democracy and its institutions and, on the other hand, the development of sustainable health. Together, we will discuss marginalization and inclusion in the context of women’s health, the links between sustainable health and prevention, access to green spaces and spaces for citizen voices and their impact on health, democratic reform of health systems, and many innovative experiments aimed at democratizing health and creating citizen spaces.

Because thinking about health is also working to improve it for everyone.
