The second edition of the WHPCA Global Atlas of Palliative Care was launched during World Hospice & Palliative Care Day 10 October. The Atlas is an update of the original WHPCA/WHO Global Atlas of Palliative care at the end of life published in 2014. It is full of useful facts and figures to support... palliative care advocacy and development. In this edition we have switched from using the WHO methodology for need for palliative care to the evolving Lancet Commission on Palliative Care and Pain Relief methodology. As a result the number of people needing palliative care has gone from 40 million per year to almost 57 million and more accurately reflects the need for palliative care globally models of palliative care worldwide? What resources are devoted to palliative care? What is the way forward?more
Este documento fornece orientações aos Estados-Membros da União Africana sobre considerações fundamentais em matéria de saúde mental e apoio psicossocial (MHPSS) em relação à pandemia de coronavírus de 2019 (COVID-19). Contém orientações úteis sobre o MHPSS para a comunidade, profissi...onais de saúde, prestadores de cuidados de saúde a populações vulneráveis e pessoas em quarentena, isolamento ou centros de tratamento(1)
(2). Estas orientações têm como objectivo proporcionar medidas práticas para reduzir o stress, a ansiedade, o estigma e as perturbações psicológicas associadas à COVID-19 e melhorar a saúde mental e o bem-estar em geral. Estas orientações podem ser utilizadas para fins de planeamento por decisores políticos e ministérios de
saúde e instituições que coordenam a resposta de emergência à resposta da COVID-19 por parte dos Estados-Membros. Pode também ser divulgada às partes interessadas.more
Os tomadores de decisão precisam fazer escolhas difíceis para garantir que a COVID-19 e outros problemas urgentes, e contínuos, de saúde pública sejam abordados, minimizando os riscos para os profissionais de saúde e comunidades. Conforme estabelecido na Conferência Mundial de Astana sobre At...enção Primária à Saúde de 2018, o nível comunitário é uma plataforma integral para a atenção primária à saúde, essencial para a prestação de serviços e funções essenciais de saúde pública e para o envolvimento e a capacitação das comunidades em relação à sua saúde. Esta plataforma comunitária, com suas capacidades distintas para prestação de serviços de saúde e engajamento social, tem um papel fundamental a desempenhar na resposta à COVID-19, sendo essencial para o atendimento das contínuas necessidades de saúde das pessoas, especialmente as mais vulneráveis.more

Une note d'orientation interagencesur la collaboration avec les communautés des zones à forte densité pour planifier des approches locales de prévention et de gestion de la COVID-19.
According to the International Science Council, the report focuses on identifying the scope of hazards that should be considered in risk reduction efforts, and provides scientifically robust and internationally agreed definitions of these hazards.
This brief document compiles existing material related to mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) for the COVID-19 crisis, as well as other resources that can be applicable to the context. Documents are divided into different sections, based on the ‘’spaces of new vulnerability” inheren...t to some IOM programmes although many of them are applicable to other areas. They cover both mainstreaming of MHPSS and specific actions.
MHPSS managers will also find guidance on how to address the less technical and more managerial and programmatic issues related with the pandemic, including programme redefinition, surge capacity and how to manage demands to provide staff support to colleagues in the same missionsmore
In the strategies for effective infection prevention and control (IPC), what does triage entail at hospitals?
Triage includes screening at the entrance, identification of cases and isolation if necessary. There should be a triage (screening) area where visitors to the hospital are interviewed using... standard questionnaires to identify symptoms, along with temperature checks and documentation of contacts. Individuals who meet the case definition for COVID-19 should be isolated immediately while arrangement is being made for swab (sample) collection from the patient. (See the WHO guidance on triage).more
Como respuesta al COVID-19 en la región, los ministerios de educación de 23 países y 12 estados independientes de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC) han cerrado las escuelas de forma progresiva a nivel de la educación preescolar, primaria y secundaria desde marzo de 2020. Como resultado, se estim...a que alrededor de 154 millones de niños, niñas y adolescentes han sido afectados en la región (cifra que incluye alrededor de 12 millones de niños, niñas y adolescentes que estaban fuera de la escuela antes de la pandemia).more
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated and added yet another layer of vulnerability to an already dire web of vulnerabilities of girls in the African continent, which constitute about 49% of the total child population. Critically, gender equality and girls’ multidimensional vulnerability have been ...accentuated to an unprecedented level. The pandemic has triggered major concerns about the potential reversal of the strides achieved over the years towards gender equality and human development in Africa.more
Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) provides a vast amount of information and the highest possible resolution for pathogen subtyping. The application of WGS for global surveillance can provide information on the early emergence and spread of AMR and further inform timely policy development on AMR control.... Sequencing data emanating from AMR surveillance may provide key information to guide the development of rapid diagnostic tools for better and more rapid characterization of AMR, and thus complement phenotypic methods. This document addresses the applications of WGS for AMR surveillance, including the benefits and limitations of current WGS technologiesmore
Intra-African migration remains a dominant trend in contemporary African migration. The Strategy frames the Organization’s new orientation with Africa at policy and strategic levels. It is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) ...to which almost all African countries adhere, as well as the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, the IOM strategic vision, and IOM Migration Governance Framework (MIGoF).more
The Guidance Notes seek to help operationalize, simplify and standardize the collection and reporting of data through the application of common language and methods. They provide information on the key issues to take into account in the collection of health data and the types of data that should be ...collated, and potential stakeholders to engage with.
