L’objectif de cette boîte à outils est de rassembler les enseignements et les orientations actuels comme point de départ pour que les parties prenantes entament le travail de préparation en matière de SSR. Dans le cadre de la SSR, le domaine de la préparation est relativement nouveau et en p...leine expansion. Un effort collectif plus important est nécessaire pour évaluer l’incidence de la préparation et faire avancer le domaine. Cet effort constitue la première ébauche d’un projet d’orientations de la préparation en matière de SSR, et est destiné aux essais sur le terrain. La présente boîte à outils reconnaît le travail de longue date effectué dans le domaine de la gestion des situations d’urgence et des risques de catastrophe, et s’efforce de faire le lien entre ce travail et le domaine de la santé sexuelle et reproductive, axé sur les droits humains et sur les personnes.

The number of children - neonates, infants, children, and adolescents up to 19 years of age - who need pediatric palliative care (PPC) each year may be as high as 21 millio...n.
