Fourteenth Annual INRICH Workshop

Violence Against Children, From Familial to Structural, Using a Global-Equity and Child-Rights Lens

June 1 - 2 , 2023
hosted by The Social Epidemiology Research Team (L’équipe ERES) at the Pierre Louis Institute of Epidemiology and Public Health (IPLESP) at INSERM – Paris, France

According to WHO, globally, up to 1 billion children age under 18 years have experienced psychological, physical or sexual violence in the past year either in their family, at school or in their community. In parallel, children are also disproportionately exposed to sources of structural violence including poverty, racism and discriminations, which can have lifelong consequences for their development, health and well-being. However, knowledge about the long-term consequences of children’s exposure to different forms of violence is growing and innovative interventions stimulating resilience have and are still being developed. Taken together, these concerted and multidisciplinary efforts indicate an increasingly hopeful future for the prevention and treatment of exposure to violence in children and adolescents and its potential consequences.

This interdisciplinary workshop, taking place in Paris on June 1st and 2nd 2023 has been organised collaboratively by the Department of Social Epidemiology at the Pierre Louis Institute of Epidemiology and Public Health (IPLESP) at INSERM and Sorbonne Université and the International Network on Research on Child Inequalities (INRICH). By bringing together an international group of clinicians, researchers and health decision makers to discuss recent findings across our respective disciplines, we may better understand the contexts in which violence against youths occurs, its long-term consequences and the ways in which its occurrence and consequences can be diminished.

Organizing committee: Maria Melchior, Judith van der Waerden, Fabienne El Khoury-Lesueur, Camille Davisse-Paturet, Simon Ducarroz, Olivier Leproux, Natasha Figuereido, Cécile Girault, Honor Scarlett, Ava Daiepour (ERES, IPLESP), Louise Séguin, Nicholas Spencer
