                                                                L’impact des interventions de lutte contre le paludisme, ces dernières années, a fortement modifié la répartition géographique du fardeau de la maladie. Cette nouvelle configuration impose une stratification plus opérationnelle permettant d’adapter les interventions aux caractéristiques ...pidémiologiques locales. L’approche focalisée des interventions spécifiques par zone devient alors un impératif.
Le présent PSN pour la période 2016 - 2020 clarifie ces nouvelles orientations strategiques.

This  national  guideline  is  expected  to  guide  policy  makers  and  h...ealth professionals  at  all  level.  A  standardized  approaches  to  will  assist  effective  and  efficient utilization  of  the  limited  resource  of  the  country,  minimizes  dilemma  and  confusion  on  case management. To this effect, the FMOH has established National COVID-19 advisory committee. The  committee  members  are  from  different  specialties  with  very  good  experiences  in  disaster management  and  prevention  and  treatment  of  infectious  disease  epidemics.  The  input  from  the committee  is used to make decisions at the national  level about theepidemics  in the weeks and months  to  come.  The  FMOH  would  like  to  acknowledge  the  members  of  the  national  advisory committee  for  their  commitment  and  unreserved  effort  in  finalizing  the  task  in  a  very  short period of time and advising the Ministry on various issues related to the epidemics at this critical time.

It provides a detailed description of person-centred and human rights-based ...approaches in mental health, and summary examples of good practice services around the world. It describes the linkages needed with housing, education, employment and social protection sectors, and presents examples of integrated regional and national networks of community-based mental health services. Specific recommendations and action steps are presented for developing community mental health services that respect human rights and focus on recovery. This comprehensive document is accompanied by a set of seven technical packages focused on specific categories of mental health services and guidance for setting up new services.
The WHO Guidance on community mental health services: Promoting person-centred and rights-based approaches is a set of publications that provides information and support to all stakeholders who wish to develop or transform their mental health system and services to align with international human rights standards including the  UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

Ce programme international permet une comparabilité des indicateurs entre les différents pays. Cett...e enquête dénommé MICS Urbaine Dakar fait suite aux MICS1 et MICS2 réalisées respectivement en 1996 et 2000. Les résultats présentés dans ce rapport constituent à la fois une évaluation des progrès réalisés dans le respect des engagements convenus au niveau international par l’Etat du Sénégal, et une situation de référence pour le suivi des Objectifs de Développement Durable à l’horizon 2030.

AMR is also prioritized under the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA), and India is one of the contributing countries. The Mi...nistry of Health & Family Welfare (MoHFW) identified AMR as one of the top 10 priorities for the ministry’s collaborative work with WHO. The National Health Policy 2017 identifies antimicrobial resistance as a problem and calls for effective action to address it. An international conference on AMR – “Combating Antimicrobial Resistance: A
Public Health Challenge and Priority”, was jointly organized by the Government of India and World Health Organization (WHO) in February 2016, which was attended by more than 350 participants. The Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, and the Hon’ble Union Minister for Health, Shri J.P. Nadda have reiterated government’s commitment to tackle AMR.

To the patient, it is also highly visible, and any disease that affects it is noticeable and will have an impact on personal and social well-being. Th...e skin is therefore an important entry point for both diagnosis and management. Many diseases of humans are associated with changes to the skin, ranging from symptoms such as itching to changes in colour, feel and appearance.
