The manual is written for clinicians working at the district hospital (first-level referral care) who diagnose and manage sick adolescents and adults in resource constrained settings. It aims to support clinical reasoning, and to provide an effective clinical approach and protocols for the managemen...t of common and serious or potentially life-threatening conditions at district hospitals. The target audience thus includes doctors, clinical officers, health officers, and senior nurse practitioners. It has been designed to be applicable in both high and low HIV prevalence settings.
Volume 2 provides a symptom-based approach to clinical care for acute and subacute conditions (including mental health). It provides short summaries of the management of diseases that affect multiple systems of the body, focusing on communicable diseases. It also includes the chronic or long-term management of HIV, TB, alcohol, and substance use disorders.

This is a report from a National, representative household survey carried out in Swaziland in 2009 – 2010. A large amount of effort has been put into this two‐year exercise until finally we can present the results of the combined efforts. First of all, this is a credit to the Federation of Disab...led People in Swaziland (FODSWA): To the Management Committee headed by Ms. Buyie Masuku for being in control of the whole process, and to the Project Co‐ordinator Mr. Bhekie Jele who for the most of the study handled all aspects in this comprehensive and complex process. Mr Yusman B Kamaleri from SINTEF played an important role in supporting FODSWA during the implementation of the study.

Le VIH/SIDA apparaît aujourd’hui comme l’une des pandémies les plus meurtrières au plan
mondial. Il touche particulièrement la zone subsaharienne de l’Afrique qui n’abrite guère plus
de 10% de la population mondiale mais qui possède près de deux tiers du total des personnes
infect...es par le VIH. Au Bénin la prévalence du VIH s’était stabilisée autour de 2% de 2002 à
2005 avant de passer en 2006 à 1,2% selon l’EDSB III. Cette prévalence faible présente des
disparités régionales et sociales. Les tendances épidémiologiques récentes révèlent que
l’affection du VIH/SIDA touche une population de plus en plus jeune et de plus en plus
féminine. Mais quelle est la situation des jeunes scolaires de 15-24 ans ? C’est là la principale
préoccupation prise en compte par cette communication qui vise à analyser l’influence de
l’environnement scolaire sur les risques en termes de sexualité des jeunes de 15-24 ans.
