Level of stunting among Bangladeshi children <5years declined from 51% in 2004 to 36% and underweight from 41% in 2007 to 33% (BDHS 2014). But the decrease in wasting rate is not as expected, which is only from 17% to 14.3 % over last decade. Approximately 3.1 % (BDHS 2014) of under-5 children suffe...ring from SAM only by weight-for-length or height z-score (WHZ) <-3 criterion and estimated to be a total of ~ 450,000. Because, there are no national information on prevalence of SAM using mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) and presence of bipedal oedema in under-5 children, thus the actual number of children suffering from SAM could be much higher than the current estimate.

Liebe Lehrende,
das Recht auf Gesundheit ist ein weltweites Menschenrecht. Dennoch gestalten sich die vielen ge-sundheitlichen Facetten in jedem Land der Erde ganz unterschiedlich. So kann dieses Menschen-recht in vielen Ländern leider oftmals nicht vollständig oder sogar überhaupt nicht eingeha...lten werden und viele Menschen leiden bis heute unter gesundheitlichen Problemen, denen sie hilflos ausgeliefert sind.Die DAHW Deutsche Lepra- und Tuberkulosehilfe e.V. hat sich daher bereits vor über 60 Jahren zum Ziel gesetzt, dieser Ungerechtigkeit entgegenzuwirken. Da Gesundheit vor allem in den ärmeren Ländern der Erde nicht rechtmäßig gewährleistet werden kann, liegt der Fokus der Organisation auf der Bekämpfung der Krankheiten der Armut und ihren Folgen. So besteht die Vision der DAHW da-rin, mit ihrer Tätigkeit dazu beizutragen, eine Welt zu schaffen, in der kein Mensch unter Lepra, Tuberkulose und anderen Krankheiten der Armut und ihren Folgen wie Behinderung und Ausgren-zung leidet. Dafür ist sie in 19 Ländern der Erde tätig.Der Einsatz für weltweite Gerechtigkeit und Gesundheit kann jedoch nur gelingen, wenn jeder Mensch dafür seine Verantwortung und Handlungsmöglichkeiten erkennt. So möchten wir mit die-sem Arbeitsheft Ihnen und Ihrer Lerngruppe Material zur Hand geben, das sich intensiver mit dem Thema „Gesundheit weltweit“ auseinandersetzt. Durch unterschiedliche Arbeitsaufträge soll damit das persönliche Bewusstsein über die Facetten der Gesundheitsthematik gefördert, zum eigenen Urteilen über Ungerechtigkeiten angeregt und zum selbstständigen Handeln für eine bessere Ein-haltung des Menschenrechtes motiviert werden.
Wir wünschen viel Spaß dabei!
