4ème Colloque international des programmes locaux et régionaux de santé
Les PLRS 2011 : les artisans du changement

June 27th - 30th, 2011
Ottawa, Canada

http://www.plrs-ottawa2011.com/

 

Cette Conférence se concentrera sur les thèmes:

Le premier colloque des PLRS en 2001 militait déjà pour un changement de paradigme dans le champ de la santé en incorporant les communautés, les populations et leurs élus comme des artisans clés du renouveau des systèmes et des pratiques de santé. Vingt-cinq ans après la charte d’Ottawa, l’effort à fournir pour réaliser ce changement de paradigme demeure toujours important.

Les réformes des systèmes de santé de nombreux pays tentent de rapprocher de la population les services de santé afin de mieux répondre à ses besoins et de réduire les inégalités sociales de santé. Elles visent ainsi à conjuguer l’action sanitaire et sociale et plus largement à organiser l’ensemble des politiques publiques qui influencent les déterminants de la santé.

Ce changement ne pourra se réaliser sans que l’ensemble des partenaires essentiels n’en deviennent les artisans : populations, associations, professionnels de santé, décideurs des secteurs public et privé.
