SPES Conference for the General Public

, ,

The SPES (Primary Care, Environment, and Health) program is a training project run by the University Department of General Medicine at the Montpellier-Nîmes Faculty of Medicine and the Avicenne University Multidisciplinary Health Center in Cabestany. A training day for interns in general medicine and a conference open to the general public will take place on September 9, 2021.

Project background

It is part of the call for projects launched by the Occitanie Regional Health Agency (ARS) as part of the 3rd Regional Health and Environment Plan, of which it is one of the winners. In particular, it aims to strengthen the ownership of environmental health among citizens and health professionals.

Project organization

To this end, it is organized in three stages:

  • Distance learning offered to general medicine interns (first year of DES in General Medicine) and teachers in the general medicine department.

  • A face-to-face course will take place on Thursday, September 9, 2021, at the historic building of the Montpellier-Nîmes Faculty of Medicine. Aimed at first-year DES general medicine interns, the morning will be devoted to presentations and discussions with environmental health experts, and the afternoon to working sessions with the interns to jointly develop thesis projects in environmental health.

  • A public lecture will be held on the evening of Thursday, September 9, 2021, at the historic building of the Montpellier-Nîmes Faculty of Medicine. Aimed at the general public, this year's lecture will focus on air pollution.

Meeting with the head of teaching

Dr. François Carbonnel, lecturer in general medicine at the Montpellier-Nîmes Faculty of Medicine and general practitioner at the MSPU Avicenne, has been selected as the winner of the call for projects launched by the Occitanie Regional Health Agency (ARS).

Why did you want to set up this Primary Care, Environment, and Health training program?

The environment can pose risks to our societies and our health. This training course raises awareness among our colleagues about what environmental health is. We want to educate them about this still relatively unknown field.

What is the purpose of this new training program?

Thanks to this training, future general practitioners will initially be able to identify the risks that the environment poses to health so that they can treat them. Subsequently, they will be able to predict and avoid them.

Who is this training for?

This training is primarily intended for interns and teachers in general medicine. The aim of this training is to make it sustainable and useful so that we can offer it on a larger scale and ensure that environmental health issues are addressed across all regions.

September 9

This day will be divided into two parts: the first part will be dedicated to training interns and teachers in general medicine. The second part will be open to the general public and will include a conference.

Here is the program for these two parts:
