Mit dem One Health Ansatz für gesunde Menschen, gesunde Tiere und eine gesunde Umwelt weltweit. Briefing paper.
Der One Health Ansatz nimmt das Zusammenspiel der Gesundheit von Mensch, Tier und Umwelt in
den Blick. Der Ansatz betont den Mehrwert einer trans-, multi- und interdisziplinären Zusamm...enarbeit zu den verschiedenen Themenbereichen. Ein multi-dimensionaler One Health Ansatz hat in den letzten Jahren zunehmend an Bedeutung gewonnen und wird nun von verschiedenen Akteuren als Ansatz zur Prävention und Reaktion auf zukünftige Pandemien gesehen

The substantial burden of death and disability that results from interpersonal violence, road traffic injuries, unintentional injuries, occupational health risks, air pollution, climate change, and inadequate water and sanitation falls disproportionally on low- and middle-income countries. Injury Pr...evention and Environmental Health addresses the risk factors and presents updated data on the burden, as well as economic analyses of platforms and packages for delivering cost-effective and feasible interventions in these settings. The volume's contributors demonstrate that implementation of a range of prevention strategies-presented in an essential package of interventions and policies-could achieve a convergence in death and disability rates that would avert more than 7.5 million deaths a year.

Die steigende Zahl der Menschen in Berlin ohne bzw. mit geringen Deutschkenntnissen führt zu einem wachsenden Mehrbedarf an Dolmetschleistungen in der Stadt. Sprachliche Hilfe bei der Verständigung in zahlreichen Lebensbereichen wird nötig – ob auf dem Amt, bei Arzt/Ärztin, vor Gericht oder de...m Standesamt. Beim Dolmetschen im Gemeinwesen stehen demnach gesellschaftliche Teilhabe und Inklusion im Mittelpunkt. Da Geflüchtete überdies oftmals von gewaltvollen Erfahrungen in den Heimatländern oder auf der Flucht erzählen müssen, kommt den Dolmetscher*innen und anderen beteiligten Akteur*innen hier eine besondere Verantwortung im Umgang mit ihnen zu. Nicht selten werden in diesem Kontext die Grenzen zwischen der beruflichen und der persönlichen Position der Dolmetscher*innen überschritten.

A discussion paper on the scope of the problem, its drivers, and strategies for moving forward for policy, practice, and research
In many protracted emergencies, the prevalence rates of global acute malnutrition (GAM) regularly exceed the emergency threshold of > 15% of children with acute malnutri...tion (< -2 weight-for-height z-scores (WHZ) or with nutritional edema), despite ongoing humanitarian interventions. The widespread scale and long-lasting nature of “persistent GAM” means that it is a policy and programming priority.

A recent survey of the literature and experience identified five broad actions that development institutions and governments, as well as their partners and stakeholders, can take to improve disability-inclusive disaster risk management. Those five actions are:

- Help remove barriers to the full participation of persons with disabilities
- Increase awareness among governments and their partners of the safety and security needs of persons with disabilities
- Collect data that is disaggregated by disability
- Ensure that new construction, rehabilitation and reconstruction are accessible to persons with disabilities
