On Tuesday, November 16, the Féminin Pluriel Montpellier Méditerranée collective, in partnership with the Faculty of Medicine, the CIDFF, AG2R la Mondiale, and the Agnes McLaren Association, will host a screening of an awareness-raising film on this topic as part of November, which is dedicated to combating violence against women. The screening will be followed by a discussion in the Faculty’s anatomy lecture hall. See the program for this themed evening below.
A documentary film, produced collaboratively
More than just an awareness-raising film, this film—produced with the support of the Collectif Féminin Pluriel Montpellier Méditerranée—is a documentary featuring personal testimonies. It tells the stories of six women who have experienced domestic violence. As active participants in the film’s production, guided by two female directors, these six women not only shared their stories but also helped shape the film’s concept. The film will be screened on November 16 at 6:30 p.m. in the Faculty of Medicine’s auditorium.
Designed primarily as an educational resource for teenage girls, the film is also intended for a broad audience, as domestic violence is an issue that affects all social and cultural backgrounds as well as all genders.
A screening followed by a discussion, with the filmmakers in attendance
The screening of the documentary will be followed by an open discussion and a chance to exchange views on the topic of domestic violence. Beyond physical violence, what other types of domestic violence exist? How can we recognize such violence? How can we intervene, alert others, and help victims? How can victims rebuild their lives? These are just some of the topics that will be addressed during this discussion.
A free event, open to everyone, with registration required
To make it accessible to as many people as possible, this screening is open to everyone.
Due to the current health situation, you must present a health pass and register for the event in advance (click the button below).

What's on the agenda
Detailed Workshop Schedule
In September 2020, the Ministry of Solidarity and Health published a report titled “The First 1,000 Days.” This report served as a basis for a project for second-year midwifery students at our faculty.
A report as a cornerstone
This report, commissioned by Olivier Véran, Minister of Solidarity and Health, is the result of work by several researchers specializing in early childhood: child psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, educators, doctors, and others. It highlights the importance of the first 1,000 days of a child’s life.
Since reports of this kind can be lengthy and difficult for families or professionals in the field to understand, the task assigned to the second-year Maieutics students was to simplify the information contained in this report. To do so, their project involved creating messages that were clear and accessible to everyone and transcribing them onto a poster for wide distribution.
Studies that are increasingly relevant to current events
Studies in midwifery are closely tied to current events. In fact, as soon as a new law regarding children or parenting takes effect, midwives must adapt.
For these reasons, students in the Maieutics program take courses in the humanities and social sciences as part of their curriculum. These courses help students understand current events related to this field and study the various cultures and family situations that our future healthcare professionals may encounter. The goal is to enable them to adapt to each patient and provide the best possible care.
Another goal of this course is to help them realize that they can be active participants in society, particularly by making the information they have more accessible to as many people as possible—which is precisely the purpose of the project they have been entrusted with.
The Science Outreach Project
The assignment given to the students was to transform scientific knowledge into clear messages for a diverse audience—both socially and culturally—while taking into account the many different forms of family. The instructor for this course, Kristina t’Felt, who holds a Ph.D. in sociology, divided the class into four groups. Each group was to work on a different theme:
Graphic Design Projects
As part of this project, four posters were created in partnership with students from the Montpellier Private Institute of Higher Education in Applied Arts (IPESAA). These posters will be distributed by students in the Maieutics program. Here they are:

A sustainable initiative
Given its success among students as well as its educational value, this project will be repeated for third-year Maieutics students in Nîmes.
