AdventureThe intrinsic values in such an exceptional adventure should not be overlooked. Sociologists have confirmed the growing loss of autonomy by both individuals and social groups faced with both the difficulties of existence and the loss of their traditional points of reference on the social, moral, civic and religious levels. People are fleeing to "deviant places of refuge": religious cults, hard drugs ... and apathy, mediocrity and delinquency.
Mental and physical health professionals are among the first to be concerned with these problems, and the first to be pleased with the promotion and advertising of this "Great Adventure."
The values of this "Adventure" deserve to be exploited in the education of the public and especially of the young (a theme for a future convention of "Médecine et Aventure" in France).
