On the occasion of the World Day for the Eradication of Poverty, the Centre Hospitalier Métropole Savoie organized a solidarity event on its esplanade, combining music and poetry to promote dignity and respect.

Professionals, patients, and choir members gathered on the hospital's esplanade to advocate together for solidarity, dignity, and respect for everyone. For 45 minutes, the choir Sonnaz Melodia offered a musical moment, bringing joy and warmth to the encounter. Thanks were extended to the choristers for their generosity.
The event also featured readings of texts, including the poem Home by Warsan Shire. These words invited reflection on the journeys and difficulties of those forced to leave their homes, highlighting their need for safety and echoing the day's purpose.
The institution also warmly thanked all the professionals present, particularly those from the Access to Care Unit, for their commitment to people in precarious situations.
This moment of sharing, where songs, poetry, and human warmth recalled the value of solidarity, was made possible by the contribution of all.
