Alexis Creten

BACKGROUND

Alexis Creten started in 2022 as a researcher in the Tadamoun Project. This project aims to understand the causes of the underuse of home assistance services by older citizens of the Helmet neighbourhood, in Schaerbeek (Brussels), and to experiment with possible solutions. This co-creation research combines several participatory methods to explore, with the actors directly concerned, the multiple themes that intersect within the research: social diversity and exclusion, material and spatial framework, organisation of health care, care in an urban context, participatory dynamics in assistance and care, etc.

He developed his interest in urban issues during his master's degree at the ULB and then at the CESIR (Université Saint-Louis - Brussels), before focusing more specifically on public health issues in urban context at the IRSS (UCLouvain).
