Social integration of Ethiopian and Eritrean women in Switzerland through informal sport settings

2021
Dans le cadre du Master 2 de l’université EPHE-PSL (Master Sciences du vivant, cursus IMaGHE, parcours Physiopathologie intégrative [PPI]), des étudiants se sont confrontés à la rédaction d’une nouvelle scientifique.

Organisés en binôme ou trinôme, les étudiants ont rédigé de…
