Civil Registration Policy(ies) 26/11/2025
Summary :
According to the 13 October 2025 report, this study examines the political, social and technological dimensions of civil registration systems in Côte d’Ivoire, Mauritania, and Chad. It highlights civil registration as a core infrastructure of citizenship, enabling access to rights but also functioning as a mechanism of exclusion. The report details the “social life of documents,” showing how identity papers are used strategically, how administrative inequalities persist, and how bureaucratic violence at service counters reinforces marginalisation. It also warns against the politicisation of civil registry systems, especially when civil registration, nationality, and elections become entangled. The study analyses the rise of biometric technologies, which promise efficiency but create new vulnerabilities, including surveillance risks and technological dependency. Finally, it outlines reform pathways: depoliticising civil registration, expanding citizen access, increasing transparency, fostering universal inclusion, and strengthening digital sovereignty.

The Financialization of Health in Senegal (1840–1960) 11/11/2025
Summary :
The book The Financialization of Health in Senegal (1840–1960), written by Valéry Ridde and published in 2025 by Éditions Science et Bien Commun (Québec), explores the evolution of health financing under French colonial rule. Drawing on extensive archival sources, Ridde reveals that colonial health systems—often depicted as humanitarian progress—were in fact marked by deep inequalities and fiscal exploitation. The study traces the origins of health financialization through patient payments, private medical practice, and limited mutual aid schemes. The Indigenous Medical Assistance (AMI), ostensibly free, imposed taxes and fees that burdened African populations. By examining budgets, hospital structures, and policy reforms, the book exposes the ideological and bureaucratic mechanisms that shaped colonial health governance and laid the groundwork for modern health inequities in Senegal.

In Mali, the catastrophe is accelerating under the junta regime 09/12/2025
Summary :
The report demonstrates a sharp deterioration of Mali’s security situation since the military junta seized power in 2020. Violence by militant Islamist groups has surged and now covers every region, including areas close to Bamako. Maps throughout the report (pp. 1–4) show the rapid geographic expansion of attacks. In 2023, Mali is on track to exceed 1,000 violent events, nearly triple the level recorded when the junta took power. Focused on consolidating its rule, the junta alienated regional and international security partners and demanded the withdrawal of the 15,000-strong UN mission (MINUSMA), pushing northern Mali to the brink of renewed civil war. The arrival of Russia-linked Wagner forces has worsened abuses, with more than 320 human rights violations documented. In the center and south, FLM, JNIM, and ISGS have strengthened their operations. State authority is collapsing as civilians face escalating attacks, instability, and governance breakdown.

The Challenges of the Debate on the Decolonization of Global Health in Francophone Countries 11/11/2025
Summary :
The article “The Challenges of the Debate on the Decolonization of Global Health in Francophone Countries”, published in Santé Publique (Vol. 37, No. 1, 2025) by Valéry Ridde, Amandine Fillol, Fatoumata Hane, and Fati Kirakoya-Samadoulougou, examines the controversies surrounding decolonization within Francophone global health. The authors highlight the growing academic interest in this topic alongside persistent institutional resistance to questioning colonial power structures. They discuss epistemic injustices that marginalize non-Western knowledge and emphasize the need for reflexivity, relational responsibility, and cognitive justice. The editorial calls for transforming research practices, partnerships, and policies to authentically integrate Southern voices and knowledge systems, fostering more equitable and inclusive global health governance.
