                                                                This research report provides results from the study on living conditions among people with disabilities in Zambia. Comparisons are made between individuals with and without disabilities and also between households with and without a disabled family member. Results obtained in Zambia are also compar...ed to those obtained in earlier studies carried out in Namibia, Zimbabwe and Malawi. The Zambian study was undertaken in 2005-2006.

                                                                In    Kenya,    the    bacterial    infections    that    contribute    most    to    human    disease    are    often    those    in    which    re-‐sistance    is    most    evident.    Examples    are    multidrug-‐resistant    enteric    bacterial    pathogens    such    as    typhoid,  ...  diarrhoeagenic    Escherichia    coli    and    invasive    non-‐typhi    salmonella,    penicillin-‐resistant    Streptococcus    pneu-‐moniae,    vancomycin-‐resistant    enterococci,    methicillin-‐resistant    Staphylococcus    aureus    and    multidrug-‐re-‐sistant    Mycobacterium    tuberculosis.    Resistance    to    medicines    commonly    used    to    treat    malaria    is    of    particu-‐lar    concern,    as    is    the    emerging    resistance    to    anti-‐HIV    drugs.    Often,    more    expensive    medicines    are    required    to    treat    these    infections,    and    this    becomes    a    major    challenge    in    resource-‐poor    settings.

The antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections in anima...ls that are of most potential risk to human health are likely to be zoonotic pathogens transmitted through food, especially Salmonella and Campylobacter. In addition, livestock associated methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA MRSA) and extended spectrum beta lactamase E. coli (ESBL E. coli) are emerging problems throughout the world.

The Strategy frames the Organization’s new orientation with Africa at policy and strategic levels. It is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) ...to which almost all African countries adhere, as well as the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, the IOM strategic vision, and IOM Migration Governance Framework (MIGoF).

Beginning with weapons of mass destruction it then moves on to other weapons and strategies of war such as the use of landmines and mass rape. The course concludes with a number of lessons which give an hist...orical and practical analysis of the response of health professional groups to war and militarisation.
