Education in emergencies is a young area; the evidence of its impact is often anecdotal, and although its status as a humanitarian concern has gained legitimacy in recent years, it has yet to be accepted across the humanitarian community. Much more needs to be done to enhance our understanding of t...he links between education and child protection in emergency situations.

WHO-AIMS REPORT ON MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEM IN NEPAL
A report of the assessment of the mental health system in Nepal using the World Health Organization - Assessment Instrument for
Mental Health Systems (WHO-AIMS).
Kathmandu, Nepal
India | The ‘Standard Operating Procedures for Care, Protection and Rehabilitation of Children in Street Situations’, is a unique endeavour to streamline the processes and interventions regarding Children in Street Situations, based on the prevailing legal and policy framework.
Over half a billion children are living in areas with extremely high levels of floods and nearly 160 million children live in areas of high or extremely high droughts. The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that 26% of the annual 6.6 million deaths of children under five are linked to environ...ment-related causes and conditions. Children are also disproportionately affected by pollution, not only in terms of death rates, but also in terms of cognitive and physical development. This report illustrates that environmental causes also have an impact on whether children are pushed to work and on the kind of work they engage in, the conditions of work, exposure to dangerous toxicants and the risk of exploitation. However, the report raises more questions than it answers as it is one of the first reports addressing the question, how environmental degradation and climate change affect the vulnerability of children towards exploitation.

Fortbildung | VNR 2760602016064370005 | Hessisches Ärzteblatt 5/2016 | Die weltweit zu beobachtende Flucht von Menschen vor Krieg, Gewalt, Verfolgung und Hunger stellt auch für die medizinischen Versorgungssysteme in Deutschland eine große Herausforderung dar. Neben der Versorgung somatischer Kra...nkheiten kommt der Diagnostik und Therapie psychischer Erkrankungen eine hohe Bedeutung zu. In einer in einer bayrischen zentralen Aufnahmeeinrichtung für Flüchtlinge durchgeführten Studie wurden bei 63,6 Prozent der Flüchtlinge eine oder mehrere psychiatrische Diagnosen gestellt, wobei die Posttraumatische Belastungsstörung (PTBS) mit 32,2 Prozent am häufigsten vorkam. Die Angaben zur Prävalenz der PTBS in weniger belasteten Stichproben haben eine weite Bandbreite, die durch unterschiedliche Studiendesigns und durch unterschiedliche diagnostische Kriterien in der ICD 10 und dem DSM 5 bedingt sind. In den USA findet sich in der Allgemeinbevölkerung eine hochgerechnete Lebenszeitprävalenzrate von etwa 8 Prozent. In Europa liegen die Schätzungen mit 0,5–1 Prozent deutlich niedriger. Für Deutschland werden 1-Monatsprävalenzraten von 1–3 Prozent berichtet.
