Abstract
The SP2 office (Sant茅 des Population - 2) is a team of the Direction G茅n茅rale de la Sant茅 (DGS) in charge of proposing and implementing public policies aimed at improving the sexual and reproductive health of the French population, based in part but not exclusively on the National Sexual Health Strategy and its Roadmap. In this report, I present the process of developing and steering the new Roadmap 2021-2024, which I participated in during my internship.聽聽
Developing an operational roadmap consists in carrying a series of concrete actions that will be supported and followed over the next three years. The challenge of the work was therefore to prioritize certain actions according to several criteria: feasibility, mobilizable legal vectors, action carriers and obstacles. Of course, this work is not the responsibility of the SP2 team alone: the roadmap is developed jointly by a Steering Committee made up of institutions, associations, organizations, health professionals and community actors who all have expertise in the field of sexual health.聽聽
The methodology adopted to organize the work phase already reflects the direction that this new operational strategy is taking putting forward a global and integrated approach to sexual health. The actions carried out will be divided into two strategic axes, Promotion, and Pathways, supported by a support axis, Knowledge, and two cross-cutting axes, Population and Territorial specificities.聽聽
More concretely, the work consisted in carrying out an exploratory assessment of the available data, the starting point for any reflection: the strengths, the offer of health structures, the available tools, the national recommendations, and the epidemiological data concerning the main Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI). This work helped to orient the discussions and design actions consistent with the strengths and weaknesses identified. After this co-construction phase, we summarized the proposed actions to prioritize them. Finally, an additional task of modeling the cost structure of one of the health facilities involved in STI care made it possible to support the strategy implemented and to further develop the territorial diagnosis.聽聽
