Forty years ago, the Ottawa Charter invited us to act on living conditions, not just behaviors. This issue shows that this ambition remains relevant, with the plan on endocrine disruptors, the Nutri-Score rejected by a single vote, and the cost of sexist and sexual violence. It also gives a voice to those who are seldom heard: primary school students facing violence, elderly people living on the streets, young people and their body image. On the ground, the signal is worrying: 45% of employers’ associations consider their situation difficult. You will also find concrete tools to announce a damage associated with care, open a third place, or mobilize parents to motivate teenagers, as well as two readings to reflect on the rigor of qualitative studies and the role of the individuals involved in research. Happy reading, and if the Nutri-Score is important to you, sign and circulate the petition: by a single vote, every support counts. #pratiquesensante #PromotionDeLaSanté #ChartedOttawa #NutriScore #PerturbateursEndocriniens #ViolencesSexistesEtSexuelles #ClimatScolaire #SansAbrisme #VieAssociative #SantéDesJeunes (translated)

🚨 💶 Care, lawyers, career, relocation: this report brings together data and estimates on the costs of gender-based and sexual violence for victims and for society. It highlights the lack of a sufficiently consolidated overall estimate. 🧭 It makes 100 recommendations on prevention, support, care, justice, and work. 📒 National Assembly Report - Gender-based and sexual violence: what costs, what support? ✍️ Ms. Sandrine Josso, MP. National Assembly, registered on September 29, 2026 Information report made on behalf of the Delegation for Women's Rights and Equality Between Women and Men on the cost of gender-based and sexual violence and the support for victims.

It gathers budgetary data and estimates, describes care and justice expenses that remain the responsibility of individuals, and shows how violence can permanently weaken their employment, income, and housing. For health, prevention, social, and medico-social professionals, it helps to understand the obstacles to accessing rights, breaks in pathways, and risks of secondary victimization. Its 100 recommendations provide benchmarks for team reflection on reception, orientation, and coordination of support, with attention to individuals facing discrimination. However, it does not constitute a consolidated overall estimate of violence nor an operational guide: its proposals should be distinguished from existing systems and rights. 🇬🇧: National Assembly Report - Gender-based and sexual violence: what costs, what support? - https://www.pratiquesensante.com/en/blog/practices-15/rapport-assemblee-nationale-violences-sexistes-et-sexuelles-quels-couts-quel-accompagnement-6292 #️⃣ #pratiquesensante #SexistAndSexualViolence #CostOfViolence #SupportForVictims #Psychotrauma #SecondaryVictimization #LegalAid #EVARS #pratiquesensante #ViolencesSexistesEtSexuelles #CoutDesViolences #AccompagnementDesVictimes #Psychotraumatisme #VictimisationSecondaire #AideJuridictionnelle #EVARS (translated)
This week, the protection of children is central. The decree of October 14, 2026, and the guide from the National Education establish an annual questionnaire on sexist and sexual violence, from kindergarten to high school. The guide from the High Commissioner for Childhood complements this system: it reminds how to listen to a child who confides, without questioning them. The voices of young people are also at the heart of two publications: what 1.5 million of them say they want for their well-being, and what research truly allows us to affirm about screens. On the territorial side, Fabrique Territoires Santé provides levers against social isolation, and AVECsanté clarifies the sharing of roles between MSP and CPTS. The cardiovascular roadmap 2026-2030, the KCE benchmarks for evaluating actions, and the Anses reference on health determinants complete this issue. Finally, the Céreq study on young women from QPV reminds us that inequalities accumulate and must be viewed together. #pratiquesensante #PromotionDeLaSanté #SantéPublique #ProtectionDeLEnfance #ViolencesSexistesEtSexuelles #SantéDesJeunes #SantéMentale #InégalitésSocialesDeSanté (translated)
