Excluded from participation in social activities and access to school, not only because of their disability, but especially because of so...cial, cultural, and political barriers that prevent them from enjoying the same opportunities as their peers.

L’objectif général de ce cadre est de permettre à l’OMS et à ses États Membres d’assurer la participation significative des personnes vivant avec des maladies non transmissibles, des problèmes de santé mentale et neurologiques, via un processus de cocréation et de renforcement des poli...tiques, programmes et services connexes. Sur la base de données factuelles en constante évolution, ce cadre contribuera à faire mieux comprendre la participation significative, et les mesures liées aux approches participatives connexes. Ce cadre expose des directives et les mesures pratiques à prendre pour traduire le concept de participation significative en action qui la mettra en œuvre. L’objectif de ce cadre est d’orienter les personnes travaillant à l’OMS et dans les États Membres dans le processus de participation significative des personnes ayant une expérience vécue. Ce faisant, l’OMS préconise la mise en œuvre de ce cadre à trois niveaux (Siège, bureaux régionaux et bureaux de pays), et fournit une assistance technique aux États Membres à la mise en œuvre de ce cadre au niveau national via les procédures établie

The Child Protection handbook provides a synthesis of good practice and learning and enables better advocacy and communication on child protection risks, needs and responses. Standards addressing child protection needs cover core work areas and critical issues. Those addressing strategy relate to ca...se management, community-based child protection, child-friendly spaces and protection of excluded children. A fourth set of standards gives guidance on how workers in other sectors can ensure that their programmes are accessible and beneficial to children.

The WHO Global strategy on human resources for health: workforce 2030 encourages development partners and global health initiatives to leverage their support to health systems in countries to sustainably strengthen the health workforce. To assess the impact of these investments, a methodology was de...veloped and pilot tested by WHO.
The impact assessment tool (consisting of an MS Excel calculator with two subsets) supports users to:
• assess and quantify the health impact of HRH investments made in the context of HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria programmes through their modelled effect on health service coverage of these three diseases; and
• provide aggregate indicative estimates of the range of health workers required to attain high coverage of selected health services.

Le Bénin à l’instar des autres pays d’Afrique subsaharienne, fait face à une épidémie généralisée du VIH qui est actuellement au centre des préoccupations de santé publique et de développement. De 2002 à 2006, la prévalence nationale est stabilisée autour de 2% grâce à une améli...oration de la prise en charge des PVVIH, une augmentation du nombre de patients sous ARV, et un renforcement du partenariat avec la société civile y compris le secteur privé. En 2007, on a observé une légère inflexion à 1,7% de la prévalence.
Les conséquences multiples de l’infection par le VIH ont très vite imposé la nécessité d’une prise en charge globale des personnes infectées et affectées. Les interventions sont désormais multiples et intégrées allant de la prévention à la prise en charge en passant par le conseil - dépistage (CD).

The purpose of this guidance is to assist WHO Member States, and other stakeholders, in the establishment and development of programmes of integrated surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in foodborne bacteria (i.e., bacteria commonly transmitted by food). In this guidance, “integrated surveill...ance of antimicrobial resistance in foodborne bacteria” is defined as the collection, validation, analyses and reporting of relevant microbiological and epidemiological data on antimicrobial resistance in foodborne bacteria from humans, animals, and food, and on relevant antimicrobial use in humans and animals. Integrated surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in foodborne bacteria therefore includes data from relevant food chain sectors (animals, food and humans) and includes data on both antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial use. Integrated surveillance of antimicrobial resistance for foodborne bacteria expands on traditional public health surveillance to include multiple elements of the food chain, and to include antimicrobial use data, to better understand the sources of infection and transmission routes.
