Eine Ausbildung meistern, am Erwerbsleben teilnehmen: Das ist angesichts psychischer Belastungen sehr herausfordernd. Und auch für die begleitenden Pädagoginnen und Pädagogen erwächst aus den vielfältigen Symptomatiken die Aufgabe, Unterstützungsmaßnahmen individuell zu gestalten. In dem interdisziplinär angelegten Band wird psychische Belastung erstmals als Querschnittsphänomen aus unterschiedlichen Fachperspektiven betrachtet. Autorinnen und Autoren aus Berufspädagogik, Sonderpädagogik, Sozialpädagogik, Psychologie und Sozialpsychiatrie diskutieren die nachschulischen beruflichen Bildungsprozesse und Unterstützungsangebote zur Teilhabe am Erwerbsleben. Auf Basis einer theoretischen Grundlegung wird das Phänomen der psychischen Belastung aus Sicht verschiedener Professionen beleuchtet. Anschließend werden die verschiedenen berufsbiografischen Etappen im Kontext psychischer Belastungen beschrieben. Dazu gehören Fördereinrichtungen, Übergangsysteme, Ausbildungsmöglichkeiten, Rehabilitationsmaßnahmen und Beratungsangebote. Wie das Bildungspersonal den Umgang mit psychisch belasteten Jugendlichen erlebt, wird in einem eigenen Kapitel untersucht.

One Health, « Une seule santé », est une stratégie mondiale visant à développer les collaborations interdisciplinaires pour la santé humaine, animale et environnementale. Elle promeut une approche intégrée, systémique et unifiée de la santé aux échelles locale, nationale et mondiale, afin de mieux affronter les maladies émergentes à risque pandémique, mais aussi s'adapter aux impacts environnementaux présents et futurs. Bien que ce mouvement s’étende, la littérature en français reste rare. Traduit de l’anglais, coordonné par d’éminents épidémiologistes et s'appuyant sur un large panel d' approches scientifiques rarement réunies autour de la santé, cet ouvrage retrace les origines du concept et présente un contenu pratique sur les outils méthodologiques, la collecte de données, les techniques de surveillance et les plans d’étude. Il combine recherche et pratique en un seul volume et constitue un ouvrage de référence unique pour la santé mondiale.
