Promotion Santé Bretagne

What Promotion Santé Bretagne does

Promotion Santé Bretagne is a non-profit association (loi 1901) headquartered in Rennes that operates as the regional resource center for health education and promotion across Brittany, France. The organization delivers five core service lines — training programs (Formations), methodological counseling (Conseil), documentary support (Appui documentaire), project management assistance (Conduite de projets), and publications — supported by specialized sub-brands including the Pôle Ressources PS, Pôle ETP Bretagne (therapeutic patient education), BIB-BOP bibliographic database, and the Horizon Pluriel quarterly journal. It serves health professionals, educators, social workers, local authorities, medico-educational institutions, and vulnerable populations across 13 thematic areas ranging from psychosocial skills and addictive behaviors to mental health, sexual life, and health policies. The association maintains departmental antennas across all four Breton departments and operates with approximately 28 employees under the governance of a Board of Directors led by President Pascal Jarno and Director Thierry Prestel.

The underlying technology stack is operational rather than product-oriented: the organization runs a WordPress-based website, uses Digiforma for training management, Matomo for anonymized audience analytics, Zoom for distance learning, and Genially for interactive digital dossiers. Core technology consists of accumulated pedagogical content, methodological frameworks, and a curated bibliographic database rather than software products. The business model is grant-funded and mission-driven: training is subsidized by ARS Bretagne and offered free to participants, with supplementary revenue from individual and organizational membership fees (adhésion) and documentary services. Membership in the national Fnes federation and strategic partnerships with Université Rennes 2, Aresat, Fondation Ildys, Inca, and the Conférence des financeurs provide programmatic funding and ecosystem reach. Previously known as Ireps Bretagne, the organization rebranded to its current name and is independently governed without a parent company.
