Un projet de redéveloppement des espaces publics le long de l'axe de la Borde-Bellevaux pose un défi pour l'aménageur. Pour répondre à cette tâche, l'étude présentée dans ce rapport s'appuie sur l'expertise de chercheurs associés au HRC, sur l'expertise des collaborateurs de la Ville de Lausanne (Service des parcs et domaines, Service de l'urbanisme, et Service des routes et de la mobilité), sur les documents mis à disposition par la DEP et sur les outils cartographiques publics du Canton de Vaud et de la Ville de Lausanne. La démarche retenue est à la fois interdisciplinaire, avec la mise en commun d'expertises scientifiques multiples, et transdisciplinaire, avec la mise en commun de savoir-faire scientifique, opérationnel, pratique, citoyen et politique. De plus, l'approche retenue se situe dans une démarche projectuelle, c'est-à-dire qu'elle utilise le projet de transformation urbaine comme moteur d'identification des problématiques, thèmes et échelles pertinents. À ce titre, le rapport établit une série de recommandations basées sur un devenir souhaitable de l'aménagement des espaces publics et du fonctionnement de la ville. Par son caractère de projet de recherche, l'étude vise aussi à produire une série de nouvelles connaissances empiriques sur le secteur de la Borde-Bellevaux, et de manière plus large sur les spatialités techniques, architecturales, sociales et naturelles environnantes. L'étude a été réalisée par les chercheurs associés au HRC pour ce qui concerne leur domaine de compétences et coordonnées par le Dr Shin Alexandre Koseki.

The 2015–2017 global migratory crisis saw unprecedented numbers of people on the move and tremendous diversity in terms of age, gender and medical requirements. This article focuses on key emerging public health issues around migrant populations and their interactions with host populations. Basic needs and rights of migrants and refugees are not always respected in regard to article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and article 23 of the Refugee Convention. These are populations with varying degrees of vulnerability and needs in terms of protection, security, rights, and access to healthcare. Their health status, initially conditioned by the situation at the point of origin, is often jeopardised by adverse conditions along migratory paths and in intermediate and final destination countries. Due to their condition, forcibly displaced migrants and refugees face a triple burden of non-communicable diseases, infectious diseases, and mental health issues. There are specific challenges regarding chronic infectious and neglected tropical diseases, for which awareness in host countries is imperative. Health risks in terms of susceptibility to, and dissemination of, infectious diseases are not unidirectional. The response, including the humanitarian effort, whose aim is to guarantee access to basic needs (food, water and sanitation, healthcare), is gripped with numerous challenges. Evaluation of current policy shows insufficiency regarding the provision of basic needs to migrant populations, even in the countries that do the most. Governments around the world need to rise to the occasion and adopt policies that guarantee universal health coverage, for migrants and refugees, as well as host populations, in accordance with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. An expert consultation was carried out in the form of a pre-conference workshop during the 4th International Conference on Prevention and Infection Control (ICPIC) in Geneva, Switzerland, on 20 June 2017, the United Nations World Refugee Day.
