Summary :
Introduction: Paradoxically, health activities contribute to ecological disruptions and represent 8% of French greenhouse gas emissions (The Shift Project, 2023). These findings call for an evolution to eco- responsibility health practices.
Problematic: How can occupational therapists have access to the necessary information in order to evolve? How can they be encouraged to commit and communicate about this commitment?
Description: In 2024, members of the group R2DE have published a charter of commitment combining concrete levers for action and communication tools.
Methodology: Collectively elaborated in 2022, the charter relies on a literature review done accordingly to scientific reliability criteria and professional relevance. An accessible format was sought.
Result: The charter identifies seven areas according to environmental impact: consumer goods, travel, digital use, bank saving, water and energy use, waste management and awareness. Its distribution was carried out through R2DE and ANFE channels, accompanied by supplementary visual materials for signatories. A 2025 survey of signatories gathered feedback.
Discussion: The development and dissemination of the charter raised questions regarding how to select and prioritize information for the target audience, categorize solutions in relation to core activities, and effectively communicate dense content.
Future directions: Regular updates and adjustments to the form will enrich and facilitate its use in order to permanently embed this tool in professional practice.
