D.T4.5.2 Transferability Actions in France (Alsace- Auvergne Rhone Alpes-PACA) Addressed to Innovation Stakeholders SMART-SPACE – D.T4.5.2 National transferability actions report in France Project Acronym: SMART-SPACE Project title: ASP478 D.T4.5.2 Transferability actions in France (Alsace- Auvergne Rhone Alpes-PACA) addressed to innovation stakeholders WP n°: 4 Task n°: 4.5 Author(s): Benjamin Lallemand (GRAND E NOV) Sara Maiez-Tribut (Auvergne Rhône-Alpes Entreprises) Mathilde Mauvais (risingSUD) Contributors: Benjamin Lallemand (GRAND E NOV) Sara Maiez-Tribut (Auvergne Rhône-Alpes Entreprises) Mathilde Mauvais (risingSUD) Type: R Dissemination level: PU Revision: Final Version SMART-SPACE – D.T4.5.2 National transferability actions report in France Due Date: 2019.10 Date of submission: 2019.09 Executive Summary The SmartSpace project has made it possible to support the digitalisation of the territories of the Alpine arc through actions targeting SMEs, intermediaries and public authorities. To concentrate resources and have maximum impact, three traditional industrial sectors were targeted (mechanical, textile, chemical). Economic, industrial and structural disparities among Alpine areas require local pilots to collect and harmonize as many elements and disparities as possible and reach an Alpine vision and beyond. Intermediaries, policy makers, have an ever-increasing decisive role in helping SMEs to succeed digital transformation of their business. Many of the observations and actions carried out through the project are true for all industrial and geographical sectors. To ensure that the project outputs are applicable and replicable by other organisations/regions/countries outside the current partnership, transferability actions have been addressed: - To enlarge the number of actors (for the alpine DIHs services and competences available and new member of the strategic partnership) both at local and Alpine level - To enlarge the industrial sectors to be addressed by the follow-up activities (SMEs from traditional industrial sectors; SMES from other sectors) - To enlarge the network with actors interested to cooperate within the frame of the SMARTSPACE Strategy and the operative structures organized. This document summarizes transferability actions conducted in France. In particular, Grand E-nov, Auvergne Rhone-Alpes Entreprises and Rising Sud managed to: Increase the geographical coverage of DIH services developed during WP3 actions: organisation of workshops to deploy the offer in Lorraine and Champagne-Ardenne; Recruitment and collaboration with new local partners (intermediaries and research organizations) to address new sectors (agro-food, green-tech, high-tech, etc.); Close collaboration with the region's services to elaborate roadmaps specific to each digital-related priority: cybersecurity, blockchain, photonics, etc. SMART-SPACE – D.T4.5.2 National transferability actions report in France Contents 1.

Introduction The purpose of the transferability actions is to Expand the actors involved with the project outputs (areas, industrial sectors like agro-food, green-tech and high-tech, etc.) to strengthen impact of project’s results. The objectives to achieve are specific: - Expand knowledge of project objectives and results (expand results to new institutions, intermediaries, stakeholders) - Increase the critical mass of users and beneficiaries (Involve additional stakeholders) - Promote the creation of an Alpine DIH and study the potential for engagement within the network – Prepare Strategic partnership The actions were developed according to a methodology common to all partners described in the deliverable D.T.4.5.1: This report summarizes the outputs of the Transferability actions conducted in France. SMART-SPACE – D.T4.5.2 National transferability actions report in France 2. Transferability actions addressed to SMEs a. Summary of the action (Grand Est) The Digital Transformer: a coordinated action to support SMEs in digital transformation A workshop organised to increase the geographical coverage of DIH services developed during WP3 actions Technologies and digital culture are changing the way work is organised, management practices and standards, the way people relate to work and the ways in which they collaborate. These multiple evolutions are particularly ambivalent, and extremely rapid. They offer opportunities for employees to work with greater flexibility, autonomy and cooperation, but can also result in new constraints, intensification and hyper-rationalisation that generate risks for the individual (alteration of physical and mental health, career breaks) and reduced performance for the company. New work models are to be built; new solutions are to be invented in order to integrate the issue of quality of life at work into digital transformation projects. Tools and digital culture must also promote it. The Digital Transformer is a collaborative innovation action is that aims to support at the same time digitalisation and quality of life at work. The 11th edition (Annex 0) has been carried out by the Aract Grand Est, in partnership with Grand E-nov, the Direccte Grand Est, the INRS, with the financial support of the Conseil Régional Grand Est, the Direccte Grand Est and the ESF. Step 1 - Call for applications (deadline 17 April 2019) to identify companies that: - Offer digital and/or technological solutions in response to companies' needs to improve their production processes, work organization, marketing, etc. - Integrate a digital solution and/or new technology into their work environment - Wanted to challenge their project by digital and innovation experts. Step 2 - Accelerating projects (Thursday 16 and Friday 17 May 2019 in Nancy). Pitch and brainstorm cessions to identify the main obstacles to be removed to mature their project. Several techniques and tools were used: - Mind mapping, to identify the locks and guide the discussion in the QVT field (quality of working life). - Individual coaching, to lead candidates to imagine innovative implementation paths, and reciprocal coaching between peers. - Contributions of experts. Step 3 - post Accelerator, support actions (October 2019) Support offer from the different partners adapted to the identified remaining needs of the projects. SMART-SPACE – D.T4.5.2 National transferability actions report in France Number of SME’s: 8 b. Learning and feedbacks Partners have helped companies to achieve a state of the art of existing technical solutions in relation to their objectives, put them in contact with various solution providers and assisted the project owner so that the mission could be carried out successfully (change management notably). Since SMEs rarely have the internal skills to coordinate such projects, our actions have been very well received. This action was carried out beyond the Alsatian territory on the basis of the services developed thanks to the SmartSpace project as part of the transferability actions. The value proposition as well as the profiles of the people we have recruited to carry out this type of digital transformation support seem to be adequate for a DIH in the global Grand Est Region digital strategy. c. Summary of the action (ARA) The transferability event took place on 15th march 2019 in Saint Quentin Fallavier, on the site of Martinet, a famous regional agrofood company. This event was organised by Auvergne Rhône-Alpes Entreprises in collaboration with ARIA, Regional Association for Agrofood Industries. The goal of this event was to introduce Industry of the future subjects, the smart- space project and the regional tools to support Industry of the future SMEs projects. ARIA has created an “industry of the future” club for their members and it was a good opportunity to transfer the actions conducted in the

Rev Panam Salud Publica. 2021;45:e46. https://doi.org/10.26633/RPSP.2021.46 20 21 22 23 ABSTRACT Hospitals in the French Territories in the Americas (FTA) work according to international and French stan- 24 dards. This paper aims to describe different aspects of critical care in the FTA. For this, we reviewed official 25 information about population size and intensive care unit (ICU) bed capacity in the FTA and literature on FTA ICU specificities. Persons living in or visiting the FTA are exposed to specific risks, mainly severe road traffic 26 injuries, envenoming, stab or ballistic wounds, and emergent tropical infectious diseases. These diseases may 27 require specific knowledge and critical care management. However, there are not enough ICU beds in the FTA. 28 Indeed, there are 7.2 ICU beds/100 000 population in Guadeloupe, 7.2 in Martinique, and 4.5 in French Gui- 29 ana. In addition, seriously ill patients in remote areas regularly have to be transferred, most often by helicopter, 30 resulting in a delay in admission to intensive care.

  • Country Report: France
    Country Report: France 2020 Update 2020 Update Acknowledgements & Methodology The 2020 update of this report was written by Laurent Delbos and Claire Tripier at Forum réfugiés – Cosi and edited by ECRE. Forum réfugiés-Cosi wishes to thank all those individuals and organisations who shared their expertise to contribute or check the information gathered during the research. Particular thanks are owed to many Forum réfugiés-Cosi colleagues who have shared their practical experience on the right of asylum in France – which have been key to feed concrete reality-checks and observations into this report; to the two lawyers who have taken the time to share their views on the French system; to the staff of France terre d’asile, the Anafé and the UNHCR Paris office for their expert and constructive feedback provided for the initial report and finally to ECRE for its support throughout the drafting process. Forum réfugiés- Cosi would also like to thank the European Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF) for co-financing its awareness-raising missions which allowed us to provide additional time to research and draft this report. The findings presented in this report stem from background desk research, interviews with field practitioners and lawyers, as well as feedback from French NGOs and the Paris-based UNHCR office and finally statistics shared by the French authorities. Caveat: In France, asylum policies – including reception procedures – are largely under prefectural execution. This review of practice is mostly based on observations in the departments of Ile de France, Rhône, Puy-de-Dôme, Haute- Garonne and Alpes-Maritimes. However, the conclusions presented in this report on the concrete implementation of asylum policies have been cross-checked and triangulated with observations of these practices in other regions and are supported by findings presented in other reports – be they official or drafted by civil society organisations.

Bouchard FAMILY STRUCTURE AND FAMILY CONSCIOUSNESS AMONG THE ARISTOCRACY IN THE NINTH TO ELEVENTH CENTURIES* There can be no question that the period from the ninth to eleventh centuries in westem Europe was one of political upheaval and change for the aristocracy. Charlemagne’s empire was invaded, fought over, divided into new kingdoms and principalities. Fief-holding, vassalage, and castles first became widespread. Even the sorts of men who wielded power changed as new lineages first of counts and then of castellans appeared and married into previously established lines1. This political change, it is generally agreed, was accompanied by some sort of change in the family structure of the aristocracy, but there has been a good deal of debate over exactly what this change entailed. In this paper, I shall reexamine the question of noble family structure in this period, trying first to define some of the parameters of the discussion and then making suggestions on the nature of the changes in family consciousness, suggestions quite different from the conclusions many have drawn in the last twenty-five years. I shall do so using concrete examples drawn from three different lineages or family groups.

For an amazing “volcanic trip” to the heart of France, one must visit and tour the magnificent departments of Cantal and Puy de Dôme. These departments host what it was the largest volcano in Europe and the famous Chaîne des Puys, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The word “puy” (UK : 'pwi) comes from the Latin podium, and means “height” or “hill” (Godard, 2013). Both the Cantal volcano and the Chaîne des Puys are located in the French Central Massif.

Without even mentioning the geology (in general), or the volcanoes (in particular), the Auvergne region is internationally recognized for many reasons, its landscapes with impressive peaks, valleys, ravines, forests, lakes, dormant volcanoes (although as in the Little Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: you never know ...) and so on, its remarkable religious (Romanesque and Gothic) and military architectural heritage (countless castles and fortresses), and also, why not, for its gastronomy (after all is France, isnt’it?).

For fifteen years, the French school of Archaeogeography has revisited this research field in great depth, following the first intuitions of the archaeologist Eric Vion. The innovative idea ‒ at least because it leads to a questioning of our methods ‒ is to consider the current road network as the starting point of the analysis.

  • Accent Levelling in the Regional French of Alsace Submitted By
    1 Accent Levelling in the Regional French of Alsace Submitted by Katharine Joanna Pipe, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in French, April 2014 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 2 Abstract The aim of this study is to investigate the process of accent levelling in the Regional French of Alsace and its relationship with the social variables of age, gender, social class, urban or rural origin of speakers and feelings of regional attachment. Accent levelling, which can be defined as the process of speakers abandoning local phonological forms in favour of supralocal variants, has been the focus of much recent sociolinguistic research on British English, French and other languages. Since knowledge of Alsatian (a Germanic language spoken in Alsace) is decreasing, it is possible that the resulting lack of interference between Alsatian and French is leading to levelling of the traditional accent features of Alsatian Regional French. In order to provide data for this research project, sociolinguistic interviews were conducted and written questionnaires used in Strasbourg and in the village of Helsheim (a fictional name used for reasons of confidentiality) with 56 informants. The data obtained were then subjected to quantitative analysis with regard to the linguistic variables of aspirate h (which can be realised as a supralocal zero variant or as a regional [h] variant) and the devoicing of canonically voiced plosives and fricatives (for example, sage pronounced [saʃ]).
