Description

Our work currently addresses the role of Physical and Sports Activities (PSA) and Physical and Sports Education (PSE) in the creation and/or deconstruction of social ties. We seek to understand the extent to which PSA and PSE nourish, weaken, prevent, degrade, or reinforce the constitution of the two ingredients of identities that are recognition and protection of individuals or groups. More specifically, we are interested in situations of vulnerability (physical, social, economic, psychological). Therefore, numerous studies address the improvement of living conditions of people in vulnerable situations (due to health indicators below the standards, sedentary lifestyle, reduced access to educational and professional achievements...). We are open to all academic and industrial collaborations and propose services in line with our expertise.
