  • Introduction

    L’information, la prévention et la déstigmatisation en matière de santé mentale sont des enjeux majeurs de santé publique. À l’ère du numérique, l’accès à l’information et au contenu pédagogique passe de plus en plus par des sites Internet dédiés, les réseaux sociaux, mais aussi par des vidéos hébergées sur des sites de partage, dont Youtube représente le leader mondial.

    Le projet : Inspirés par des vidéastes de talent connus du « Youtube francophone », comme Karim Debbache (Crossed) ou Bruce Benamran (E-penser), nous avons créé en 2014 une chaîne sur le site YouTube : le Psylab. La chaîne propose une publication régulière de vidéos de vulgarisation de la psychologie et de la psychiatrie, en lien avec la culture populaire. En effet, le propos est illustré par de courts extraits de films, de séries télévisées ou même de jeux vidéo. Très impliqués dans la formation des étudiants en médecine et des internes, nous envisagions au départ que nos vidéos soient à destination de ceux-ci. Mais la popularité grandissante de la chaîne nous a rapidement fait réaliser que la demande du grand public était très forte. Ainsi le projet pédagogique initial est rapidement devenu un projet d’information et de prévention à destination du grand public. Outre le contenu que nous proposons, nous établissons une correspondance la plus régulière possible avec nos abonnés via les réseaux sociaux (facebook, twitter) ainsi que dans la section des commentaires sur le site Youtube.

    Le PSYLAB en chiffres : à l’heure actuelle, la chaîne rassemble 22480 abonnés (reflet des spectateurs les plus fidèles), les 30 vidéos ont, au total, été vues 456 244 fois. Soixante-dix-sept pour cent des spectateurs sont âgés entre 18 et 34 ans, 70 % étant de sexe masculin.

    The Vernacular Aristotle

  • Summary

    The introduction discusses the interrelated notions of translation and reception and introduces the main topic of the book: namely, the ways in which vernacular readers appropriated the legacy of Aristotle in Italy between 1250 and 1500. Given the deep-rooted and widespread presence of Aristotle in medieval and Renaissance culture, the vernacular reception of the philosopher’s works offers a productive lens through which to reconsider the proactive role of translation in the construction and refinement of communicative tools able to disseminate the philosophical tradition among wider communities of readers. As such, the introduction reflects on the cultural implications of the theory and practice of vernacular translation in the period, arguing that its function is better understood when considered as part of a wide-ranging reception process involving not only the translators, but also their readers, who, in various ways, contribute actively to the process itself.

  • Pest and Disease Management in Irrigated Maize and IPM Technology Transfer to Smallscale Farmers in Southern Mozambique

    Insect Science and Its Application / Volume 17 / Issue 3-4 / December 1997

  • In the Eduardo Mondlane irrigation scheme in Chokwe, southern Mozambique, land had been allocated in 1983 to approximately 12000 farmers for growing rice (85%) and maize (15%). From the onset, maize production in the warm season was severely constrained by a number of pathogens and pests. During 1984–1988 a study on downy mildew, maize streak virus, stemborers and rodents, was carried out. This resulted in the formulation of a package of recommendations along lines of integrated pest and disease management, which was subsequently disseminated to farmers by the extension service. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of technology transfer, farmers were interviewed just before the new recommendations were disseminated (1988) and again two years after the start of the training and extension programme. Severe constraints in technology transfer to farmers were encountered due to the poor functioning of the extension service. It is concluded that improvements in communication and feedback mechanisms between farmers, extensionists and researchers and substitution of the prevailing ‘top-down’ training and extension methods by a ‘bottom-up’ approach are needed. In addition, rehabilitation and proper maintenance of the irrigation system and better land allocation to smallholders is required before research recommendations can be expected to work.
