AIDS2024 - 25e conférence internationale sur le sida

Le thème de 2024 est « Ensemble nous pouvons », soulignant le pouvoir de notre communauté lorsque nous sommes tous unis. Pour en savoir plus, en anglais, veuillez lire les informations ci-dessous.

No one should stand alone in our fight to end overdose.

While every individual action matters greatly, coming together as an international community creates a powerful collective action. One that moves us with greater speed toward our shared goal of preventing, and ultimately, ending all overdoses.

Through our 2024 theme, “Together we can” we’re highlighting the strength of coming together and standing in support of those connected to the tragedy of overdose.

For people who use drugs and those who don’t. For heartbroken friends and family members of lost loved ones. For activists who fight for sorely needed policy reform. For healthcare and harm reduction workers. For tireless advocates. Overdose can affect anyone, and we encourage you to remember the tenacity of our community. Lean into the power that we can have when we work together.

This August 31, reach out and connect with others in your local community and join the global IOAD movement. Our collective voices are stronger, louder, and the most impactful when brought together.

Let’s remember, together, we can end overdose.

 4e Sommet international des fédérations francophones - « Visibles/invisibles : les usages de drogues au croisement des regards »

 Le GREA : 60 ans d’engagement et de transformation des politiques drogues de Suisse

« Visibles/Invisibles : les usages de drogues au croisement des regards », tel est le thème du quatrième sommet international des fédérations francophones belges, canadienne, française, luxembourgeoise et suisse. La journée regroupera des professionnels d'horizons variés autour de tables rondes dynamiques.

Alors que certains usages dans l’espace public exposent des vulnérabilités sociosanitaires, d’autres sont confinés silencieusement. Les problématiques d’addiction ont la spécificité d’être entourées d’une dimension morale qui peut pousser à cacher certaines souffrances, à taire un plaisir ou à consommer dans une indifférente normalité. Des consommations évidentes sont tues alors que certain·e·s n’ont pas le choix de l’intimité. Au travail, dans l’effort physique ou intellectuel, puis dans les loisirs, les formes diffèrent. Leurs interprétations politiques et sociales varient également selon le statut socioprofessionnel, l’âge, le genre et l’origine, mais également la place de celui ou celle qui l’analyse. Agir dans un cadre balisé et professionnel ne suffira pas : les représentations sociales jouent un rôle prépondérant sur les pratiques de consommation ainsi que sur l’encadrement politicolégal. Pourtant, ces représentations sociales correspondent rarement avec les savoirs expérientiels et professionnels. Éclairons ce qui est invisible et interrogeons ce qui est visible afin d’explorer de façon transversale les articulations entre les politiques de santé, de sécurité, et des droits humains.

« Apprendre du passé, concevoir l'avenir : perspectives novatrices pour les politiques "Addictions" », tel est le titre de la journée en l'honneur des 60 ans d'engagement et de transformation des politiques « drogues » en Suisse du GREA.

En 60 ans, l’association romande des professionnel·le·s des addictions a accompagné les transformations sociétales autour des conduites addictives. Elle s’est engagée pour renforcer une vision humaniste des politiques «addictions» et a fait entendre les personnes concernées. Alors que les illusions meurtrières de la guerre à la drogue restent ancrées dans nos lois, nous appelons à voir au-delà du mirage. Il s’agit de contempler ensemble les addictions au sens large, de reconnaitre que la frontière entre personnes concernées et professionnel·le·s n’est pas si claire que cela, alors que le contexte social, technologique et économique joue un rôle fondamental sur l’apparition d’addiction. Aujourd’hui, le GREA porte une voix qui compte dans les domaines social, sanitaire, politique et économique. Ce jubilé ne représente pas seulement une célébration des réalisations passées, mais aussi une reconnaissance des succès obtenus et ceux à construire ensemble.

Réservez également la soirée, le sommet sera suivi d’un repas festif.

Journées romandes Addictions 2024

Le 15e Forum international de l'AWID se tiendra du 2 au 5 décembre 2024 à Bangkok, en Thaïlande, où les féministes du Sud et les communautés historiquement marginalisées se mobiliseront pour entrer en contact avec des mouvements alliés, des bailleurs de fonds et des décideurs politiques.

The AWID Forum is the world’s largest event that wholeheartedly centers feminist and gender justice movements in all their diversity. It is a transformative space created by and for the movements - where Global South feminists and historically marginalized communities take centerstage, strategize to shift power, and connect with allied movements, funders and policy-makers.

And so it is with full and fiery hearts that we share…

The 15th AWID International Forum will take place from December 2-5, 2024 in Bangkok, Thailand!

We hope to gather 2,500 in-person and 3,000 online/hybrid participants.


When thousands of feminists come together, we create a sweeping force of solidarity that has the power to change the world! We’re excited, and we know you’re excited too - so stay tuned for more details, including registration and our plans for a program full of feminist magic.

Forum international de l'AWID 2024
