Cette recherche qualitative se propose d’identifier la perception sociale limitant ou favorisant l’adhésion des communautés au projet FRANC dans les régions du Bafing et du Kabadougou, au nord-ouest de la Côte d’Ivoire. Les instruments utilisés dans cette perspective ont été le focus group et l’entretien semi-directif, adressés aux populations bénéficiaires, aux responsables locaux et administratifs. Les résultats indiquent que le FRANC est perçu par les bénéficiaires comme une garderie où l’on peut déposer l’enfant afin de vaquer à ses occupations domestiques et agricoles. Les volontaires évoquent des difficultés de motivation dues à l’absence de compensation financière. Les sessions de réhabilitation sont conduites de manière irrégulière, ce qui pénalise la continuité de la prise en charge. Toutefois, on note une amélioration au niveau de l’hygiène environnementale, alimentaire et corporelle, comme efforts de capitalisation.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The Foyer de Renforcement des Activités de Nutrition Communautaire (FRANC) is a permanent operational structure set up by the community to solve its own nutrition and integrated early childhood development problems. The aim of this qualitative research is to identify the social perceptions that limit or encourage community support for the FRANC project in the Bafing and Kabadougou regions of north-west Côte d'Ivoire. The instruments used for this purpose were focus groups and semi-structured interviews, addressed to beneficiary populations and local and administrative officials. The results indicate that FRANC is perceived by beneficiaries as a day-care center where children can be dropped off to attend to their domestic and agricultural chores. Volunteers report difficulties in motivation due to the lack of financial compensation. Rehabilitation sessions are conducted irregularly, which penalizes continuity of care. However, there has been an improvement in environmental, dietary, and personal hygiene, as capitalization efforts.</p> 2025-10-27T10:39:55+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Siaky Motihé Kamara https://eujournal.org/index.php/esj/article/view/20222 Identity Resilience and Professional Project Reconstruction Among Internally Displaced Youth: The Case of Young People Settled in the Central Region of Burkina Faso 2025-10-26T16:48:33+00:00 Elie Corneille Dakuyo aa@aa.com <p>This qualitative study examines the processes of identity resilience and professional project reconstruction among internally displaced youth settled in the central region of Burkina Faso. In a context of security crisis that has caused the displacement of more than 2 million people since 2016, this research focuses specifically on the adaptive mechanisms developed by young people aged 18 to 30 to reconstruct their professional identity after a major biographical rupture. The methodological approach is based on semi-structured interviews conducted with 25 internally displaced youth, analyzed using a thematic analysis approach inspired by grounded theory. The results reveal three central processes of identity reconstruction: narrative reappropriation of life trajectory, creative adaptation to new professional opportunities, and mobilization of community and family resources. The study highlights the importance of psychosocial protective factors in the development of identity resilience, particularly social support, access to professional training, and recognition of skills acquired through adversity. These results contribute to a better understanding of identity reconstruction processes in crisis contexts and offer perspectives for psychological support of displaced populations.</p> 2025-10-26T16:48:33+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Elie Corneille Dakuyo https://eujournal.org/index.php/esj/article/view/20215 The Sasanian Simorgh and Its Reflections in Islamic and Byzantine Art 2025-10-27T18:29:28+00:00 Seyed Salam Fathi aa@aa.com <p>The Simorgh, a prominent composite creature in ancient Iranian mythology and art, achieved its most stylized and symbolic form during the Sasanian period. A mythological hybrid with canine or leonine heads, eagle wings, scaled bodies, and peacock-like tails, it became a key motif in Sasanian luxury arts. This study introduces a new typology of the Sasanian Simorgh based on a comparative formal analysis of its visual variations in silk textiles, silverware, and architectural ornamentation. Four main morphological groups are identified, each defined by distinctive tail structures and compositional elements. Employing Panofsky’s iconological method in conjunction with the theories of Hans Belting and Michael Baxandall on visual transmission, the research explores how the Simorgh motif was recontextualized in Islamic and Byzantine art. The findings demonstrate how the proposed typology enhances our understanding of the Simorgh’s visual transmission across cultural and temporal boundaries, revealing consistent patterns of adaptation and transformation in Islamic and Byzantine art. This typological framework thus contributes to broader discussions on image circulation, visual hybridity, and cultural exchange in Late Antique and Byzantine visual cultures.</p> 2025-10-25T14:08:28+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Seyed Salam Fathi
