The territorial dimension of health crisis
DITES studies mobility and territorial cooperation to rethink governance modes in times of crises. The aim is to improve territorial responsiveness by bringing decision-making closer to the people concerned. This novel relational spatial approach is based on the hypothesis that the risk factors associated with a crisis depend less on the local context than on the intensity of links between territories. This project focuses on three areas of research.
1. Mobility and Risk: Which Territorial Systems
2. Public policies and players: What are the local mobilities?
3. Everyday players and informal networks: What connections do you have?
