International audience ; À Madagascar, les pratiques de soins traditionnelles côtoient celles de la biomédecine et sontencore largement utilisées pour des raisons d'ordre économique et géographique, maiségalement politique, social, culturel, voire religieux. Les individus consomment aussi bien desremèdes à base de plantes médicinales que des médicaments allopathiques, par automédication,sur prescription d'un médecin ou de personnel soignant ou sur conseil de guérisseurs. Cet articleexamine les éléments ethnographiques recueillis lors d'enquêtes réalisées à Madagascar, dans unvillage de la région Analanjirofo (côte est). Il présente l'offre de soins disponible pour lesvillageois et le pluralisme thérapeutique à l'œuvre dans leur quête de soins. Le choix du remèdeet du thérapeute s'opère selon le type de traitement recherché et le modèle étiologique supposédes symptômes ou de la maladie (dite « naturelle » ou « surnaturelle »). L'expérience vécue dumalade, l'avis du « groupe organisateur de thérapie » ainsi que les représentations de l'efficacitédes remèdes sont autant d'éléments qui entrent en jeu dans le choix du traitement et la façon dele consommer (en automédication ou chez le thérapeute). La recherche de soins, de remèdes etde thérapeutes peut ainsi être analysée comme une forme « d'automédication différée ».

Following the WHO recommendations made in the late 1970s, many countries in Africa have implemented dynamics of recognition of traditional medicine and traditional healers. This dissertation focuses on the development of « integrative medicine » in Madagascar, consisting in its integration into the formal and conventional health care system. This development project, focusing on improving population's public health, requires a double evaluation: a social evaluation with the supervision of traditional healers' practices and a therapeutic evaluation with research on medicinal plants and development of improved traditional remedies. This research is the result of a methodological approach based on multi-located fieldworks conducted in the Malagasy capital and its surroundings and an ethnography of a rural town in the Analanjirofo region (east coast of Madagascar). On one side, this approach focuses on the attempts of application of political decisions regarding the supervision of traditional medicine and on the other side, on the real practice of traditional care as well as on individual and communal behaviours when facing disease, sickness, illness and misfortunes with extended case studies. This thesis contributes to the anthropology of health with a focus on political and developmental dynamics. A special emphasis is placed on the nature of cohabitation existing between practitioners (doctors and traditional healers) going from a simple referencing of patients to a rare collaboration. This study tends to highlight the possible gap between government decisions and local applications as well as the resulting social, political and economic issues. ; Depuis les recommandations de l'OMS de la fin des années 1970, de nombreux pays en Afrique ont mis en place des dynamiques de reconnaissance de la médecine traditionnelle et de ses praticiens.

Nearly 40% foodborne outbreaks in the European Union are attributable to food practices in domestic homes that include handling and preparation of raw chicken. Hand washing is an important way to prevent cross-contamination with pathogens during chicken preparation. This study, which is part of the EU Horizon 2020 funded consortium SafeConsume, aimed at quantifying and understanding hand washing practices in three categories of households and five European countries. A quantitative survey (n=1889) was combined with qualitative research, during which 75 participants from France, Norway, Portugal, Romania, and the United Kingdom were observed and interviewed. An original method for analysing video with "The Observer XT" software was developed to identify when and how risk arises. The quantitative survey and qualitative research data revealed that touching raw chicken was more frequent in Romania and Portugal. Practices to avoid touching raw chicken were declared and observed, although observations revealed that these practices were not always consistently followed. Only a third of the participants washed their hands with soap after handling raw chicken with important variations among countries (a majority in Norway and in the UK, a few in France and Portugal, none in Romania), in contrast to the results of the survey. Observations and interviews suggested that rinsing hands with water only and washing hands with soap are considered equivalent by many people. Barriers to washing hands due to improper equipment were mainly observed in Romania. Washing hands after touching raw chicken was motivated by food safety concerns for some participants in Norway and the UK, but not in France and Portugal, where it was motivated by unpleasant feelings on hands, or presented as a habit. Participants not washing their hands after touching the chicken did it after other actions they presumably perceived as unsafe (e.g. touching the bin, handling pets, and blowing the nose), indicating that they did not specifically consider ...
