Health is a fundamental right that is central to people’s well-being, dignity and autonomy, which is why it is essential to ensure access to comprehensive, fair and inclusive healthcare for all, at all stages of life.

As a public agency, Expertise France aims to contribute to fairer and healthier societies, in all contexts, by supporting integrated, cross-cutting and gender-sensitive approaches that place people at the centre of public policies. With this in mind, we promote a comprehensive vision of health and well-being, encompassing physical, mental, reproductive, nutritional and social health.

We work closely with national systems, community stakeholders, research institutions and international partners, and pay particular attention to vulnerable groups, such as women, children, teenagers, people living in poverty and minorities. Our ambition is to go beyond curative care and promote autonomy, access to information and healthy environments.
