This document outlines the concept of a stimulus package for rabies elimination. The aim of a stimulus package is to catalyse rabies control by starting community projects, building local capacity and using success to generate momentum for growth. Governments could apply for... a package, which would provide technical and material support to run small, successful rabies control projects. These in turn build evidence for the feasibility of larger scale elimination, generate enthusiasm foaction and promote investment for sustainability and up scaling. Data reporting in return for the packages would allow the documentation of successes and lessons learnt to benefit global elimination efforts more broadly.

Planetary health is a nascent concept focused on the interdependence of human, animal, and environmental health. It offers a new way to solve global problems, such as pollution and global food security, by balancing the health of our planet with human advancement.
Panorama is motivated by the audac...ious and visionary concept of planetary health. It represents a tremendous opportunity to solve the biggest health and environmental problems of today.

Practically, planetary health presents a new way to approach and solve problems. For example, there is
alignment at the highest levels with global policy frameworks – primarily the Convention on Biological
Diversity Aichi Biodiversity Targets, the Paris Climate Agreement, and the Sustainable Dev...elopment
Goals – which will require collaboration across sectors to make progress. While this alignment validates
integrated concepts like planetary health, it also highlights the need for these concepts to be much
more actionable, so that they can be easily taken up by government decision makers as a way to
achieve goals.

of working across sectors of government for improved population health and wellbeing is much older than that. Over the last few decades the term has been applied t...o multiple health topics and challenges – whetherimplicitly or explicitly.

The biosphere underlies the whole sustainable development concept, as the layer on
which society and the economy rely. Nature and biodiversity fuel the natural cycles
and life-support systems of the planet, on which humanity ultimately depends.
Video is a very effective way to communicate complex concepts – like the inter-relational models Side-by-Side rests on – quickly and effectively. Side-by-Side has a small but growing collection of videos. Download and share these videos with caregivers using your social media channels, WhatsApp,... or show them to caregivers on a screen during in-person interactions. These videos should always be shown with sound on.

SLe concept des médicaments essentiels a été utilisé pour la première fois par l'Organisation Mondiale de la Santé (OMS) dans les années 70 pour permettre aux Etats membres de faire face à la prolifération des médicaments sur le marché en tirant un meilleur rapport coût/efficacité des r...esources allouées à la santé grâce à une sélection et à une gestion rationnelle des médicaments.
Les médicaments essentiels permettent de soigner à moindre coût et de manière efficace la majorité des pathologies d'une région donnée. Ce concept s'est étendu depuis peu aux réactifs pour analyse médicales et aux dispositifs médicaux.
La première édition de la Liste Nationale des Médicaments Essentiels dans le pays a été élaboré en 1992 en s'inspirant de la première liste modèle de l'OMS.

This document provides technical guidance on concepts, definitions, indicators, criteria, milestones and tools to assist leprosy programmes in their journey towards the goals of interruption of transmission and elimination of leprosy disease and through the post-elimination period. Importantly, it p...rovides criteria with benchmarks, where possible, for all key aspects of leprosy programmes and services. Not only those related to elimination efforts, but also those related to diagnosis and management of leprosy, leprosy-related disabilities, mental wellbeing, stigma and discrimination and inclusion and participation of persons affected by leprosy. The document emphasises that the elimination of leprosy is a long-term, continuous journey on the one hand, while, on the other, clear milestones can be recognised on the way and programme implementation can be assessed against benchmarks, guiding appropriate action to keep the programme on track.

This document outlines the concept and content of the WHO people-centred approach to addressing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the human health sector. The proposed approach recognizes and aims to address the challenges and health system barriers people face when accessing health services to prev...ent, diagnose and treat (drug-resistant) infections. It puts people and their needs at the centre of the AMR response and guides policy-makers in taking programmatic and comprehensive actions to mitigate AMR in line with a proposed package of core interventions. These interventions are based on a review of four pillars and two foundational steps that are critical to overcome barriers faced by people and health systems in addressing AMR.

Background: Disability is a complex concept involving physical impairment, activity limitation, and participation restriction. The
Washington Group developed a set of questions on six functional domains (seeing, hearing, walking, remembering, self-care, and
communicating) to allow collection of co...mparable data on disability. We aimed to improve understanding of prevalence and correlates of disability in this low-income setting in Malawi.
