Inequalities of housing, thermal uses and health: study of five Parisian buildings.

Résumé

The renewal of the issue of health and well-being in housing after the Covid 19 confinement accelerates the debates between the actors in the field of housing (architects, developers, social landlords) on the 'new needs' (Bajos, 2021; Fijalkow 2021). In France, between 2020 and 2022, three official reports question the notion of housing quality (Badia Le Mas, 2018, Idheal 2021, Leclerc Girometti 2022). The recomposition of the housing field between public and private actors as well as the emergence of associations (Fijalkow, 2019) leads users to assert themselves as clients concerned with their health. We are witnessing a transformation of the relationship between the use of private and communal space as well as the relationship with national policies, particularly in terms of energy saving (thermal renovations, search for sobriety) (Grant, 2020). The buildings we studied represent typical figures of the Parisian housing stock. Today, Parisian buildings, whether they are condominiums or social housing buildings, are concerned by work programs undertaken within the framework of the Climate Plan initiated by the City of Paris. This renewal affects the social life of the buildings which has been consolidated over the years. For if a building is built by materials and populations, it is also the result of a history from its construction to the daily maintenance (or degradation). In this article, we make the hypothesis that buildings keep the trace of these different actions, are impregnated with them and that this conditions the way in which questions of public health in housing emerge, in particular concerning heating. To show this, we will study five exemplary buildings, concerned in different ways by the tension between heating and health. We will ask ourselves what skills the inhabitants have to make the link between their heating difficulties and health problems? What are their capacities to intervene and improve their housing? What are the risks to their health and the external variables that can influence their decision-making? To analyse the relationship between health, well-being and housing quality, the SAPHIR1 program proposes to investigate the residential history of buildings, dwellings and households. If well-being in housing depends on the capacity of the inhabitants to use their dwellings to develop their social life, the inhabitants' narrative about their housing seems to us to be an important factor. Individual interviews, surveys of housing occupancy patterns and focus groups are conducted in twelve types of social housing buildings and five private buildings. The analysis focuses on a variety of buildings (public and private) built from the 1950s onwards with different construction standards in eastern Paris.
