The DIPHE (Développement, Individu, Processus, Handicap, Éducation) research unit arose from the desire of eight teacher-researchers in the Psychology of Development, Education and Vulnerability (PsyDÉV) department to unite around a common research project. The laboratory was officially created in November 2017, under the supervision of Université Lyon 2. The team brings together researchers developing research whose work aims to better understand the psychological issues, needs, resources and adaptation processes put in place by developing subjects confronted with life experiences that make them fragile. Research focuses mainly on populations at risk of significant vulnerability, either due to personal health-related factors (disability, developmental disorders, aging, illness, etc.), or due to life-course, cultural, social and/or family characteristics (family characteristics, etc.). In 2024, the laboratory will comprise 9 permanent teaching/research members, 12 associate members and a manager.

 

Since its creation in 1973, the Université Lumière Lyon 2 has been committed to a strong and demanding vision of Higher Education and Research, driven by a spirit and values that are also its trademark: human and humanistic, committed and supportive, democratic and civic-minded. A founding member of the aggregation of universities and higher education institutions known as the COMUE Université de Lyon, the Université Lumière Lyon 2 welcomes nearly 30,000 students on two campuses to its bachelor's, master’s, and doctoral degrees. Its thirteen faculties and institutes offer a wide range of courses in four areas of education and research: Arts, Literature, Languages / Law, Economics, Management / Humanities and Social Sciences / Sciences, Technology, Health.

Over 19,000 professionals have been trained, and hundreds of interventions are carried out each year at IFATC or in partner institutions.The institute is the bearer of strategic and narrative practice in human systems interventions.

IFATC is directed by Estelle D'Ambrosio, mediator and systemic therapist. Reynaldo Perrone, psychiatrist and systemic therapist, is Director of Studies. Yara Doumit-Naufal, social worker and systemic therapist, is the Pedagogical Manager.

An extension of the Institute is currently operating in Clermont Ferrand, under the responsibility of Boris Socat, specialized educator and systemic therapist. IFATC has three UDCF (Unité de Développement des Compétences Familiales) consultation centers, in Lyon, Meyzieu and Clermont Ferrand, where a team of 15 professionals specializing in systemic therapy work daily with families, couples and individuals.
