La démocratie en santé : adopter une approche féministe pour lutter contre les oppressions sociales.

As committed associative campaigners for global health and rights, we have observed that health interventions are often dominated by a biomedical perspective. This approach tends to be disconnected from local dynamics, excludes communities, and replicates standardized intervention models. In light of this, we examine how to rethink projects by engaging front-line associations in a collective reflection that amplifies the voices of those most directly affected.In this perspective, we have anchored our action in a feminist health democracy approach. Through initiatives such as the "Jeunes en vigie" project, we aim to highlight practices that challenge and transform power dynamics both in the way that actions are carried out and in the production of knowledge. These initiatives focus on the individual and collective empowerment of young people, particularly young women, and the establishment of dialogue with healthcare providers. They aim to give value to experiential and medical knowledge and to promote the participation of everyone in decisions concerning health.
