Immer mehr (Medizin-) Studierende nutzen die Möglichkeit, für Praktika, Famulaturen, das PJ und andere Auslandsaufenthalte vor, während und nach dem Studium in andere Länder zu reisen. Oftmals liegen die Ziele in Ländern des globalen Südens. Den vielen Chancen und besonderen Möglichkeiten, di...e diesen Auslandsaufenthalten innewohnen, stehen auch viele Schwierigkeiten und ernstzunehmende Kritikpunkte gegenüber. Vielfach fehlt eine strukturierte Vor- und Nachbereitung, die Wissen vermittelt und Raum für kritische Reflexion lässt.
Die Broschüre „360° – eine Einführung in die Globale Gesundheit als Vorbereitung auf Auslandsaufenthalte“ ist von der 2009 von der Globalisation and Health Initiative (GandHI) herausgegebenen Lektüre „Hier & Dort. Einblicke in die Globale Gesundheit“ inspiriert. Mit dem „360°“ wurde eine weitere Möglichkeit geschaffen, sich mit Themen globaler Gesundheit auseinanderzusetzen und sich auf Auslandsaufenthalte vorzubereiten. Es werden praktische Hinweise und Hintergrundwissen vermittelt sowie Denkanstöße und wichtige Fragen aufgeworfen. Ziel des „360°“ ist es, den Blick für die Vielfalt und Komplexität dieser Welt zu schärfen und somit dazu beizutragen, dass Auslandsaufenthalten für alle Beteiligten mehr Nutzen als Schaden bringen.

These annual surveys are conducted to provide estimations of some major socio-economic indicators on annual basis which would not be possible with other periodic surveys like Nepal Labour Force Surveys (NLSS) and Nepal Living Standard ...Surveys (NLSS) which are undertaken at longer intervals. The survey basically aims to provide estimates of consumption by sex, urban-rural area and by consumption quintiles/deciles. Although the major thrust of Annual Household Survey is on consumption and employment situations, other sectors like education, housing and housing facilities and demographic characteristics are also included. As this year NLSS survey is conducted so, this survey does not contain information on employment situation as in previous annual household surveys.
