Les effets du Covid sur les politiques et les métiers du care : perspectives comparée
20 juin 2024 – 09:00-17:00
Co-organized with Clémence Ledoux (Université de Nantes)
The policies developed to answer the pandemic in Europe have varied from country to country, but in the field of home care for elderly people, the emergence of Covid-19 has raised the same health and socio-economic questions. How to ensure the protection of home care workers and the people they were caring for, knowing that certain tasks require close proximity? How to ensure, especially in a context of lack of equipment or unclear instructions, that care workers were not exposed to the virus? How to reward home care workers? How has the pandemic led to a longer-term reconfiguration of the regulation of the home care sectors?
The objective of the conference It aims to understand how the institutional contexts and the existing systems of organized actors in five very different countries (France, Germany, Belgium, Italy and the United Kingdom) have determined the responses to the problems faced by the elderly and the professional home care workers working with them, both at the time of the arrival of the virus and afterwards.
