Eine wachsende Anzahl von Studierenden interessiert sich für Global Health. Bisher mangelt es jedoch an ausreichenden Angeboten zur Verwirklichung von studentischen Global-Health-Forschungsprojekten. Um vor diesem Hintergrund interessierte Studierende auf ihrem Weg zum eigenen Global-Health-Forschu...ngsprojekt zu unterstützen, hat die AG Forschungsplattform der Global Health Alliance-Deutschland (GHA-D), in Kooperation mit weiteren Institutionen, das Handbuch "Forschung mit Weitblick" entwickelt. Neben Hintergrundinformationen und Anregungen zur kritischen Reflexion werden in dem Handbuch eine Auswahl von Forschungsarbeiten mit Global-Health-Bezug sowie erste Schritte zur Umsetzung eines eigenen Forschungsprojekts vorgestellt.

It aims to promote a greater understanding of why these practices are used and build practical skills to help end these prac...tices. While the module itself focuses on ending these practices in the health care setting, much of the content can also be applied in other settings where seclusion and restraint occur, for example in the home and in the wider community.

Acclerating attainment of universal health coverage and bridging the access inequity gap
Liebe Global Health-Interessierte,
ihr studiert an einer Universität, an der es noch kein Lehrangebot zu Global Health
gibt? Ihr spielt mit dem Gedanken, das zu ändern, wisst aber nicht genau, wie? Ihr
wollt selbst ein Wahlfach gestalten und durchführen?
An den Universitäten Leipzig und Hann...over haben Studierende 2018 und 2019
bereits erfolgreich Wahlfächer zu Global Health ins Leben gerufen. Basierend auf
ihren Erfahrungen soll euch das folgende Kompendium eine Hilfestellung für die
Etablierung eines eigenen Wahlfaches an eurer Universität bieten. In 11 steps zum
Wahlfachkönnt ihr nachvollziehen, welche bürokratischen Schritte gegangen und
welche inhaltlichen sowie organisatorischen Fragen geklärt werden müssen.
Außerdem findet ihr einen Leitfaden zur Vorbereitung einer Unterrichtsstunde,
sowie einen Stundenverlaufsplan für die Eigenverwendung und am Ende eine
Auflistung möglicher Qüllen und Ansprechpartner.
Wir hoffen, dass Global Health bald an vielen weiteren Unis in der Lehre präsent
sein wird und freuen uns, durch diesen Beitrag hierfür Unterstützung bieten zu
können. Für Fragen und Anmerkungen stehen wir euch jederzeit gerne zur
Verfügung!

A treatment literacy guide for pregnant women and mothers living with HIV
Positive Health, Dignity and Prevention for Women and their Babies is intended for use by networks of women living with HIV, women’s groups, peer educators and others wishing to help guide women living with HIV t...hrough the decisions they will need to take before, during and after their pregnancy. It is not intended as a substitute for going to a health facility and seeking information from a healthcare worker.
The facilitator’s manual and flipchart are intended to be used by leaders of support groups, peer educators or lay counsellors to facilitate small groups or community sessions with women living with HIV. Together, they provide accurate and comprehensive information to enable pregnant women and mothers living with HIV to know their rights and make informed decisions about their health, and the health of their baby.

Each year, about 210 million women become pregnant and about 140 million newborn babies are delivered. The sheer scale of maternal health issues makes maternal well being and survival vital concerns. A decade after The Lancet published a Series on maternal survival, a new Series of six papers brings... our knowledge of maternal health, its epidemiology, successes, and current failings together, and at a crucial time within the sustainable development framework to 2030. The Series concludes with a call to action setting out five key targets which need to be met to ensure the progression of broader sustainable development goals (SDGs).

Background: In 2015, 5.3 million babies died in the third trimester of pregnancy and first month following birth. Progress in reducing neonatal mortality and stillbirth rates has lagged behind the substantial progress in reducing postneonatal and maternal mortality rates. The benefits to prenatal an...d neonatal health (PNH) from maternal and child health investments cannot be assumed. Methods: We analysed donor funding for PNH over the period 2003–2013. We used an exhaustive key term search followed by manual review and classification to identify official development assistance and private grant (ODA+) disbursement records in the Countdown to 2015 ODA+ Database.
