Presentation of University Diplomas (DU) 2022-2023 / 2023-2024 “Beach erosion processes and coastline management strategies” at OSU-Réunion 

Posted on by anne.mariotti

Wednesday March 20, 2023, on the University campus of Moufia, the University of Reunion and the DEAL, representing the coastal observatory of Reunion, carried out for the first time an official presentation of the University Diploma (DU) diplomas “Process beach erosion and coastline management strategies”.

Offered since 2017, this DU is in its 5th promotion. It is dedicated to professionals (territorial engineers and technicians) who are responsible for managing the coastline and coastal risks. The training is provided by a team made up of academics (University of Reunion, UMR Espace-Dev, OSU-Réunion, University of Western Brittany), DEAL and BRGM with whom partners were able to join depending on the years. invested in GEMAPI (TO), ecological restoration (CEDTM) or scientific mediation (Vie Océane).

This event marks a significant moment for the teaching team since since 2022 this training has been part of the training initiatives of the Coastal Observatory (DEAL, Region, BRGM, OSU-Réunion/Université de La Réunion CNRS IRD Météo France, UBO), “Nout bord’mer” whose objective is collective resilience in the face of coastal risks through knowledge sharing.

This short and intense training now takes place every year over 23 hours: 1 day in the field, 1 day devoted to the morphodynamics of the coastlines and a day on the regulatory and management framework. 3 days which, in 2023, made it possible to train on the one hand, 12 professionals already in activity, from different structures: ONF, CEREMA, Municipalities, EPCI, Region, DEAL and on the other hand, 10 students from the Master 2 RNET (Natural Resources and Risks in the Natural Environment). The association of students in initial training and professionals training “throughout life” makes this University Diploma a rich and original moment of training.

In 2023, the success was such that there were more applications than places available. The DU having also received applications from elected officials and secondary school teachers, the Coastal Observatory wishes to organize training for elected officials for 2024 and work is already underway with the rectorate for a DU for teachers of History-Geography and Life and Earth Sciences at secondary level and sustainable development referents.

The University of Réunion and all the members of the Coastal Observatory congratulate all the graduates for their investment and success and wish them to be able to put their new skills at the service of society.

Exhibition and conference on sexual violence at the University of Reunion

Posted on by anne.mariotti

« Psychotraum'artists:
victims of sexual violence express themselves through art« 

Psychotraum'Artistes is an artistic exhibition on sexual violence and the psychotrauma that results from it.

The exhibited works are the fruit of the creativity of survivors of sexual violence, who wished to bear witness to the consequences that this violence had on their lives by expressing themselves through drawings, paintings, collages, sculptures or even poems.

In addition to providing an opportunity for expression for these resilient women, the exhibition also aims to shed scientific light on psychotraumatic mechanisms. Psychological damage which very frequently occurs following sexual violence, the psychotraumatic mechanisms are still too little known today by the general public as by certain professionals in contact with the victims.

Validation of the scientific content of the exhibition was carried out by Dr Christine Visnelda-Douzain, psychiatrist specializing in psychotrauma.

Posted on by anne.mariotti

A real highlight of the 26e European week for the employment of people with disabilities which took place from November 14 to 20, 2022, on Duo Day has become an unmissable event.

Scheduled for Thursday, November 17, 2022, this operation aimed to promote the integration of people with disabilities into the world of work and to combat prejudice.

Allow people with disabilities to discover a particular profession as a duo or to create a vocation, that is the main objective.

The relationship, which took place over a day, made it easier to discuss all subjects, whether the daily life of a job or the issue of disability in the workplace.

5 of our students participated in this day:

  • 4 at France Télévisions – First meeting on the professions of “head video editor”, “radio presenter”, “journalist” and “weather presenter”.
  • 1 at the Saint-Denis Court of Appeal on the profession of “public procurement manager”.

Congratulations to them and thank you to our partners!
