The issue of Antimicrobial resistance has become one of the most substantial health issues, prompting the World Health Assembly (WHA) to urge Member States to finalise tailor made national action plans by May 2017, aligning them with objectives of the Global Action Plan (GAP). These cover awareness,... surveillance and research, hygiene infection prevention & control, optimal use of antimicrobial medicines and economic case for sustainable investment. Indonesia, by virtue of its geographical terrain and complex interactions with diverse stakeholders, indicates a higher burden of AMR. Most of the country’s data currently relies on local studies conducted by labs and universities. To get a more accurate estimate of the situation, one has to rely on results from the Regional Resistance Surveillance Programme. By undertaking such measure, Indonesia would acquire data to detect AMR trends at a national level.

Immer mehr (Medizin-) Studierende nutzen die Möglichkeit, für Praktika, Famulaturen, das PJ und andere Auslandsaufenthalte vor, während und nach dem Studium in andere Länder zu reisen. Oftmals liegen die Ziele in Ländern des globalen Südens. Den vielen Chancen und besonderen Möglichkeiten, di...e diesen Auslandsaufenthalten innewohnen, stehen auch viele Schwierigkeiten und ernstzunehmende Kritikpunkte gegenüber. Vielfach fehlt eine strukturierte Vor- und Nachbereitung, die Wissen vermittelt und Raum für kritische Reflexion lässt.
Die Broschüre „360° – eine Einführung in die Globale Gesundheit als Vorbereitung auf Auslandsaufenthalte“ ist von der 2009 von der Globalisation and Health Initiative (GandHI) herausgegebenen Lektüre „Hier & Dort. Einblicke in die Globale Gesundheit“ inspiriert. Mit dem „360°“ wurde eine weitere Möglichkeit geschaffen, sich mit Themen globaler Gesundheit auseinanderzusetzen und sich auf Auslandsaufenthalte vorzubereiten. Es werden praktische Hinweise und Hintergrundwissen vermittelt sowie Denkanstöße und wichtige Fragen aufgeworfen. Ziel des „360°“ ist es, den Blick für die Vielfalt und Komplexität dieser Welt zu schärfen und somit dazu beizutragen, dass Auslandsaufenthalten für alle Beteiligten mehr Nutzen als Schaden bringen.

The most common mental health problems in the region are depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, suicidal behaviour and substance abuse disorder. Several modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors were identified for the cause of these major mental health issues. Interventions, programmes and policies need to be designed in order to curb mental health problems at all levels.

Young children are especially susceptible to exposure to trauma. Rates of abuse and neglect among this population are staggering. This article presents a review of relevant literature, including research findings specific to early childhood vulnerability to trauma, symptoms associated with traumatic... events, diagnostic validity of early childhood trauma, and treatments for young children. In the past, misconceptions about the mental health of young children have hindered accurate diagnosis and treatment of trauma-related mental illness. Due to the prevalence of trauma exposure in early childhood, counselors are encouraged to become familiar with ways that clients and families are impacted and methods for treatment. Implications for future research also are presented.
