Centres expérimentaux de prise en charge pour conjoints violents, les CPCA ont été créés à la suite du Grenelle contre les violences conjugales en 2019. Pensés pour apporter une prise en charge médicale, sociale et psychologique aux auteurs de violences conjugales, ils sont aussi le lieu où se tiennent les stages de responsabilisation auxquels les auteurs de violences sont souvent condamnés. Aujourd'hui saturés de demandes, les CPCA, gérés par un réseau d'associations locales et nationales, devraient bientôt être pérennisés. Leur personnel demande cependant une hausse du budget alloué à la lutte contre les violences conjugales, afin de faire face à la demande croissante. Récit, dans cet épisode de Code Source, avec Christine Mateus, journaliste au service société du Parisien, qui s'est rendue en reportage au CPCA de Limoges. Si vous ou une personne de votre entourage est victime de violences conjugales, appelez Violences Femmes Info au 3919, numéro d'écoute, d'information et d'orientation destiné aux victimes de violence conjugale.

In this episode, we examine two major issues shaping Ireland's justice and migration policies.First, the case of 22-year-old Evan Fitzgerald, who died by self-inflicted gunshot wounds after opening fire at the Fairgreen Shopping Centre in Carlow. Fitzgerald was out on bail, despite Garda objections, for charges related to possession of guns, ammunition, and explosive materials. The Taoiseach says a review of bail laws is now underway, though significant changes may be constitutionally challenging.Then, we look at the government's decision to scrap plans for an international protection centre at the former Crown Paints Factory in Coolock. Minister of State for Migration Colm Brophy said the change reflects a shift towards State-acquired properties and IPAS centres. The local group ‘Coolock Says No' called it a “great victory.”We'll discuss the implications of these developments and what they mean for justice and housing policy in Ireland. Hosted on Acast.

Picking Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a known vaccine sceptic, as the Secretary for Public Health might not be the most ‘out there' thing the Trump administration has done but it certainly raised some eyebrows. Since his appointment Kennedy has been on a mission to ‘Make America Healthy again' and has set his sights on finding ‘the cure' for Autism. Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurological and developmental disorder that can affect how someone communicates, socialises, learns and behaves. In the 1980's one study estimated that 4 in 10,000 (1 in 2500) children in Wisconsin had an Autism diagnosis. Recent data from the Centres for Disease control states that 1 in 31 eight year olds in the US have the condition. Why have the numbers gone up? Is it due to environmental toxins as Robert Kennedy suggests or does the answer lie in the counting?

Trends can be predicted, and trends can unfold. Here, Liz Beatty – co-founder and chief strategy of Inato – speaks to the beginnings of a new era in drug development brought on by key technological advances in AI. Historically, large urban academic centres have conducted the majority of clinical trials, leading to such issues as inaccessibility, lack of representation, and intense competition for participants. With growing industry pressure for greater trial access, a more focused effort to bring research into communities is unfolding. At the same time, there seems little that AI can't be applied to so as to ameliorate speed and efficacy, and also specificity – and Beatty expands on these points and more.

The SCI is designed to track the development of technology and financial centres across the world in their support for and readiness for new technology applications.Investors, entrepreneurs, scientists, media, academics, governments, and regulators can attune their cities to attract innovation and growth in Science, Technology, Energy Systems, Machine Learning, Distributed Ledgers, or Fintech. Tuning a city for innovation is complex. Z/Yen began studying successful and unsuccessful business innovation clustering some 15 years ago, and published in 2018 the Smart Jurisdictions Index. Building on the results of that research we have created a novel factor assessment index based on three dimensions - innovation support, creative intensity, and delivery capability.The SCI is designed to track the readiness of business centres across the world to support new technology businesses. The SCI uses assessments from private and public sector individuals, along with over 120 instrumental factors, to rate the centres.

After a 4 day ordeal, Wang made a dramatic TV appearance alongside Thai police, with his head shaved but otherwise seemingly unscathed.Wang's case shed light on an issue that had been getting little coverage in the national press.

Trump's aid cuts prompt African leaders to embrace self-reliance

International report

Some African leaders regard United States President Donald Trump's decision to halt aid to the continent as an opportunity to foster self-reliance. They have already initiated plans to mobilise the necessary resources to reshape Africa's aid landscape. “Trade, not aid, is now the pillar of our policy in Africa,” said United States ambassador Troy Fitrell, from the Bureau of African Affairs, in a speech on 14 May at business summit in Abidjan.The declaration settles any doubts over the Trump administration's position on aid towards Africa. The US – the world single largest aid donor in the world, according to the United Nations – no longer wants to disburse billions in foreign aid, despite the fact that it represents a small percentage of its entire budget.In 2023, the US spent $71.9 billion in foreign aid, which amounts to 1.2 percent of its entire budget for that fiscal year.President Donald Trump repeatedly stated that aid is a waste. For years, Africa has been the region receiving more funding from the United States than any other.Across the African continent, Trump's executive orders were initially met with shock, anger, and despair — but also with a renewed determination to change course and place African resources at the heart of African healthcare.In February, at an African Union summit, Rwandan President Paul Kagame announced that the AU's health institutions, including the Centres for Disease Control, would take the lead in seeking alternatives to US funding.“Africa now finds itself at a crossroads. The health financing landscape has shifted dramatically.“I propose that, over the next year, we work together to define new mechanisms for concrete collaboration on healthcare among governments, businesses, and philanthropies,” he told African leaders.“The work of building our continent, including our healthcare systems, cannot be outsourced to anyone else.” To untangle what is going on, for this edition of Interntional Report, RFI interviewed Eric Olander, editor-in-chief of the China-Global South Project; Chris Milligan, former foreign service officer at USAID, in Washington; Mark Heywood, human rights and social justice activist in South Africa, co-founder of the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC); Onikepe Owolabi, vice president of International research at the Guttmacher institute in New York; Monica Oguttu, founding executive director of KMET, Kisumu Medical and Education Trust, in Kenya.

Thank you to the Hyde Park Book Club for hosting us and Next Chapter Books for supporting the event. Katharina's first novel, THE APPOINTMENT, was translated into over fifteen languages, it was adapted for the stage starring Camille Cottin and was nominated for several prizes. Katharina is in ribald mode in this funny, outlandish, and yet, very melancholic novel about a man called Jimmie who works in a call centre. Jimmie helps holiday makers.  He placates their fears about sharks in the waters of Mykonos, Greece, among many other strange and wonderful challenges.  He also manages a complicated relationship with his mother and has a traumatic memory of an electric carving knife that threatens to burst to the surface. The Irish writer, Colm Tóibín, said the book is ‘filled with brilliant dialogue, unexpected turns, some very dirty talk with sudden bursts of hilarity, and then fierce sadness.'

En complément de la prise en charge en couveuse dans les hôpitaux, l'Unicef et le Fonds Muskoka ont développé depuis six ans, avec le gouvernement ivoirien, le programme Centres de Soins Mère Kangourou (SMK). Une méthode de contact peau à peau entre la mère et son bébé prématuré, pour réduire la mortalité néonatale, qui donne déjà de très bons résultats. Avec notre correspondante à Abidjan, Marine JeanninMalgré les pleurs des bébés et les discussions à voix basse des jeunes mères, l'atmosphère est feutrée dans le service « Mère Kangourou » du CHU de Treichville, une commune d'Abidjan en Côte d'Ivoire. Seize femmes et leurs bébés sont actuellement logées, encadrées et soignées dans cette unité d'une vingtaine de places. Parmi elles, Fatim Wandao, 23 ans, porte entre les seins un bébé d'un mois, son premier enfant. L'hôpital a dû déclencher son accouchement avant terme, raconte-t-elle, à cause d'une complication survenue à six mois de grossesse.« Ils l'ont envoyé en couveuse, parce que le bébé était trop petit, se souvient-elle, encore émue. Je tremblais. Je me suis dit “Est-ce que mon bébé va s'en sortir ? Est-ce que je vais m'en sortir ?” Quand je le voyais dans la couveuse, je ne me sentais pas bien, parce qu'elle était trop petite. Mais quand le bébé est revenu, je me suis sentie très heureuse. La première fois que j'ai pris mon bébé dans les bras, je me suis sentie fière d'être maman. Quand on est venues ici, au fur et à mesure, j'ai commencé à prendre soin d'elle, et les mamans qui sont ici avec moi m'ont aidée. »La méthode est simple, explique l'infirmière Nicole Howo. Garder en permanence les bébés au contact de leur mère, grâce à un foulard étroitement noué, comme pour prolonger la grossesse hors du ventre maternel. « On porte les bébés peau à peau, à la poitrine des mamans, et c'est cette chaleur-là qui permet à l'enfant de se développer. Ça marche, on a des bébés qui viennent à 600 grammes, et on les voit aujourd'hui, ils sont normaux, comme les autres bébés. »Le porter « kangourou » aide l'enfant à se développer, mais aussi la mère à garder un bon état psychologique, car les risques de dépression post-partum sont accentués après un accouchement prématuré. De peur de perdre leur bébé peu après la naissance, beaucoup de parturientes refusent même de leur donner un nom. « Ça permet à la maman de regagner en confiance, parce que quand on [donne naissance à un enfant] prématuré, on se culpabilise, on est traumatisée. Donc la mère elle-même voit l'enfant grandir progressivement. Chaque jour, on fait les pesées. Cinq grammes aujourd'hui, 10 grammes aujourd'hui, 20 grammes demain. Elles sentent l'enfant grandir. Quand on atteint le kilogramme, on célèbre ! », se réjouit le Dr Chantière Somé-Meazieu, qui dirige l'unité Mère-Kangourou.Quinze centres de soin Mère-Kangourou sont déjà fonctionnels, avec l'objectif de doubler ce nombre d'ici à 2030. Le gouvernement aimerait appliquer ce programme à l'échelle nationale, encouragé par les bons résultats que souligne Mariana Stirbu, représentante par intérim de l'Unicef dans le pays. « Dans ce centre, pour l'année dernière, on a eu un taux de survie de 99 %. C'est un pourcentage très important. Beaucoup de ces enfants auraient pu décéder, c'est une question de vie ou de mort », détaille-t-elle. La prématurité reste l'une des principales causes de mortalité infantile en Côte d'Ivoire, puisqu'elle représente près de 30 % des décès néonatals. À lire aussi«Carnet de santé», le podcast – Dr Somé-Meazieu, grand-mère des prématurés en Côte d'Ivoire

HOT HOT HOT!In our first standalone Hot Topic episode (released every Friday) we discuss and debunk the inaccurate remarks made by Robert F. Kennedy Jr (26th United States Secretary of Health and Human Services) in responding to a new report from the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention. This report claims that rates of Autism had increased to one in 31 among 8-year-olds. We analyse the claims made, the studies cited, and the broader impact of such rhetoric on public perception and policy. Here's what we cover in this episode:Mr Kennedy blames environmental risk factors for the uptick, he accused the media and the public of succumbing to a “myth of epidemic denial” when it came to autism. We discuss why he is so wrong!He called research into the genetic factors that scientists say play a vital role in whether a child will develop autism “a dead end” and that autism was preventable - while directly contradicting researchers within his own agency on a primary driver behind rising rates of Autism diagnosis in young children.The importance of accurate representation, the role of genetics in autism, and the need for advocacy and community support to combat damaging misinformation and stigma.Resources:Article written by Columnist (and father to an Autistic Son) John Harris in the Guardian A new report from the Centres for Disease Control and PreventionSUPPORT US THROUGH OUR SPONSERS:Work with Ashley Bentley at Integrative Coaching, Breathwork & Hypnotherapy to break free from old patterns and start living with more clarity, confidence, and connection - https://bit.ly/ashleyndeGet an Autism and ADHD assessment in the UK with https://www.rtnmentalhealthsolutions.com/ Use the Discount Code RTN23 when you make your initial enquiry through the RTN website or the website portal.Follow NDE on social media:Instagram: @theneurodivergentexperiencepodFacebook: The Neurodivergent Experience & Jordan's Facebook page YouTube: @TheNeurodivergentExperienceTikTok: @neurodivergentexperienceIf you have ever enjoyed any of these episodes, could we please ask that you consider leaving a short a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify?

"It was hell. The worst seven months of my life. I was beaten, humiliated, electrocuted."Jalil Muyeke thought he was travelling to Thailand for a dream job. Instead, he was trafficked to Myanmar, imprisoned in a scam centre, and forced to commit online fraud under the threat of violence. An estimated 100,000 people fell victim to these operations run by Chinese crime groups. Jalil endured seven months of beatings and abuse before finally finding a way out. He eventually had to pay for his own flight back home and was fined 1,500 Thai Baht for overstaying his visa, which is approximately 44 dollars - a small price to pay to be swiftly reunited with his family in Uganda. But thousands are still stuck in Myanmar today, with many African governments unwilling to pay to bring their citizens home. Alan Kasujja speaks to Jalil, who survived the ordeal, to find out how he was tricked, what life was like inside, and how he made it out.
