Abstract
This article delves into the intricate journey of mental health and discrimination faced by a young non-White woman, an Asian-origin French language representative, as she navigates the complex terrain of identity construction: first within the realm of language teaching, then through the spheres of diplomacy and the corporate world. Through a qualitative analysis of narratives and experiences, drawing upon unique challenges and barriers that shape her identity, this study uncovers the ways in which language teaching and learning environments contribute to the perpetuation of harmful stereotypes and discriminatory practices. The article seeks to promote awareness, inclusivity and support the mental well-being of marginalized individuals. Through personal narratives and critical analysis, the article explores the structural inequities, resilience strategies and provides recommendations for fostering inclusivity in society.
期刊介绍：
This review aims to compare approaches to medical ethics and bioethics in two forms, Anglo-Saxon (Ethics, Medicine and Public Health) and French (Ethique, Médecine et Politiques Publiques). Thus, in their native languages, the authors will present research on the legitimacy of the practice and appreciation of the consequences of acts towards patients as compared to the limits acceptable by the community, as illustrated by the democratic debate.
