Since the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing in 1995, gender mainstreaming has become a widespread strategy for changing unequal social and institutional structures which discriminate against women and girls, with the goal of achieving gender equality. Much has changed for women since 1995:... they have become more visible as actors in society, economy and politics. Public awareness regarding their discrimination has increased. However, most societies remain based on patriarchy and male hegemony. Patriarchal structures and institutions cannot easily be changed and the struggle for gender equality is still far from being won.

Mounting an effective international humanitarian response to a chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear (CBRN) event, especially if the response is undertaken on an ad hoc basis, would be extremely difficult and would pose many risks to the responders. The International Committee of the Red Cro...ss (ICRC) has created a competency-based capacity to respond to at least small-scale CBRN events, including a deployable capability to undertake operational activities. This involves informed assessments of CBRN risks, timely and competent decisions on how to respond, and effectively mobilizing appropriate resources to implement these decisions, through the creation of an emergency roster. In addition to the acquisition of technical expertise and material resources, the creation of such capacity requires the application of central processes, ensuring systematic management of CBRN response (including risk-based decision-making), standing operational procedures, and availability of and access to the necessary resources. Implementation of the ICRC's CBRN response framework as described in this article should be considered by any agency or other stakeholder preparing for international humanitarian assistance in CBRN events – especially if such events are related to armed conflict.

Ce cours donnera aux cliniciens qui prescrivent régulièrement des antibiotiques les connaissances et les outils pour améliorer l’utilisation de ces médicaments essentiels dans la pratique clinique quotidienne. A l’aide d’exemples de cas, le cours mettra en évidence la façon dont les prin...cipes de bon usage des antibiotiques peuvent être appliqués à des scénarios cliniques courants. Nous verrons d’abord les connaissances cliniques fondamentales nécessaires pour utiliser correctement les antibiotiques. Puis, nous illustrerons comment les cliniciens peuvent intégrer ces connaissances dans la prise en charge des patients atteints d’infections courantes en respectant les cinq compétences principales de prescription appropriée d’antibiotiques. Ce cours fournira un cadre pour aborder chaque rencontre clinique sous l'angle de la lutte contre la résistance aux antibiotiques. Nous espérons que ce cours vous servira et vous inspirera pour devenir un champion sur le bon usage des antibiotiques.
