Writing in the first person, a woman from the “Un chez-soi d’abord” program relates the different forms of her engagement: As citizen, scientific researcher, and political actor. These roles allow her to examine a structure not previously known in France that forms one part of the research project presented: A randomized medical and social experiment. What was at stake from an ethical and social point of view and how did the actors address these issues? How did the program make a link between science and politics? Are scientific approaches apolitical? Are they protected from all ideological biases? Is that really desirable? Referring to the timeline leading from the choice of methodology to the final results, the author relates her practical experience of the impact of this research on reality.
