"Le Manuel de l’OMS pour la gestion de l’aspect santé publique des accidents chimiques a pour objet de passer en revue l’ensemble des principes et des rôles qui sont ceux de la santé publique dans la gestion des accidents et des situations d’urgence d’origine chimique. Tout en apportant... ce type d’information pour chaque phase du cycle de gestion des situations d’urgence, notamment en ce qui concerne la prévention, les plans d’urgence, la préparation, la détection et l’alerte, l’intervention et le rétablissement de la situation, les auteurs admettent que la gestion des accidents et des situations d’urgence de nature chimique nécessite une approche pluridisciplinaire et plurisectorielle et que le secteur de la santé est susceptible de jouer un rôle complémentaire influent, voire le rôle de chef de file, aux différents stades du processus de gestion. Le manuel s’adresse notamment aux professionnels de la santé publique et de la protection de l’environnement ainsi qu’à tous ceux qui sont partie prenante à la gestion des accidents de nature chimique."

This brief summarises key considerations about the social, political and economic context of Goma in relation to the outbreak of Ebola in the DRC as of March 2019. Goma is the administrative capital of North Kivu province and a major urban centre in the Great Lakes Region. The city is home to an est...imated 1.5 million people and serves as an important economic and transportation hub that links eastern Congo to the broader East African sub-region. The arrival of Ebola in Goma would substantially increase the at-risk population and heighten the potential for cross-border transmission to neighbouring countries, particularly Rwanda. This brief therefore focuses on local social and political structures that can be leveraged to promote preparedness and readiness actions.
