Faculty of Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy and Educational Sciences: online course on environmental health Environmental health has been defined as «aspects of human health and disease that are determined by the environment» (WHO, 1989). The focus of this definition is on the possible relationships between environmental variables and health, and on health monitoring. Environmental variables include biogeographical factors, environmental pollution and disturbances, as well as factors relating to the quality of food, the quality of the indoor environment (air, noise, electromagnetic fields, etc.) and the quality of the working environment (abnormal fatigue or specific stress factors). This subject is covered in the Psychology of Health course via the MOOC «Acting for your health», aimed at students in the second year of the Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and the first year of the Master’s degree in Public Health. It explores how people frequent a place and interact with it. Anne-Marie Etienne, AM.Etienne@uliege.be, Céline Stassart et Aurélie Wagener. Faculty of Veterinary Medicine: collaborative project to strengthen teaching on animal health Veterinarians play an essential role in detecting the symptoms of zoonotic diseases in animals. The strengthened collaboration with the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Lubumbashi (FMVUNILU) in the DRC, funded by AMORCE, ARES-CCD, aims to improve the training of students and veterinarians through practical training. The aim is to make the FMV-UNILU a reference point for clinical issues relating to ruminants and dogs in the region. By encouraging collaboration between the teaching staff of the ULiège Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and the FMV-UNILU authorities, the project aims to improve the quality of training, encourage regular clinical practice and meet the needs of the local veterinary community.
