The KotéSanté on the occasion of the blood donation operation, carried out at the Arsenal.

The KotéSanté is a kot-free project whose mission is to provide prevention for students on the Namur campus. Their project focuses on 4 main areas: sexual health, alcohol awareness, mental health and blood donation promotion. At various campus events, KotéSanté organizes prevention stands and distributes condoms.

One of their latest activities is a project to distribute prevention packs for Valentine's Day. In these packs, students could find cup protection, condoms, chocolate and lots of little surprises. All at the reduced price of 2€.

Harm Reduction Group

Among the many partners of KotéSanté, the Réduction des Risques (RdR) group of the Cellule Médico-Psychologique du VéCU brings together UNamur students and staff committed to promoting health on campus. They are regularly joined by associations in the field to help them support harm reduction projects in festive environments.

Le KotéSanté is a very active partner of the Réduction des Risques group, as are other collectives such as AGE, KapNord and les régionales. The kot-à-projet helps to identify students' needs, provides food for thought, and works with us to come up with prevention messages that would resonate with students and the best ways to communicate them.

AKàP: the Assembly of Kots-à-Projet

On the Namur university campus, students who want to get involved in community life have access to a number of meeting places. These include Circles, Regionals and also KàPs, which offer members the opportunity to carry out a project close to their hearts over the course of an academic year. Each KàP brings together students who work together on a project, usually living in the same community housing. Their missions fall into three categories: campus animation, humanitarian and societal support, and student services.

The first KàPs have been around since the early 1980s. Over the years, KàPs have become highly professionalized, adopting an organized and regulated structure. As early as 1986, a procedure for allocating, evaluating and subsidizing KàPs was set up under the supervision of the authorities of the University of Namur. At the same time, the construction of community housing intensified in several locations on campus, including the Quai Ferdinand Courtoy and Bon Pasteur districts.

There are currently some fifteen KàPs on the UNamur campus. Every April, a call is opened to encourage students to launch their own project.
