Complément au Rapport mondial sur la prévention des traumatismes chez les enfants 2008
This publication includes quotes from various respondents interviewed in Tripoli, Akkar and Beirut. We focused on three main questions: How are the relations between refugees and Lebanese? How are refugees faring in the job market? Which concrete initiatives have already demonstrated positive impact... in terms of increasing their financial and/or social well-being? The combination of those factors are key to understanding refugees’ livelihoods and coping strategies and reflect on what more can be done by local and international actors to increase social stability in Lebanon on a temporary basis, pending durable solutions.

L’OMS a ciblé 17 maladies comme des Maladies Tropicales Négligées. Ces maladies sont très différentes les unes des autres, mais elles ont comme point commun de toucher principalement les populations les plus pauvres. Elles maintiennent dans la pauvreté les populations ayant initialement un n...iveau de développement faible. Ces maladies coexistent au sein des mêmes populations, augmentant de ce fait leur vulnérabilité.

Prioritise education in conflict-affected areas:
Across the world 28 million1 primary school-age children living in conflict-affected countries are
out-of-school, and they form half of the world’s total out-of-school population. During conflict,
infrastructure assets such as schools are damaged... or completely destroyed during fighting. Children
may choose to stay away from school due to their and their family’s safety fears in the midst of
conflict, or the need to supplement their family’s income amidst conflict-related financial loss.
Children who are internally displaced by conflict face a particularly challenging task accessing
education due to the specific conditions created by their displacement, such as loss of livelihoods
making school fees hard to find, and discrimination from host communities. Children caught in
conflict are being deprived of their right to education2 and denied the opportunity to benefit from the
protective and life-sustaining mechanisms of education.

Складні події останніх років в Україні накладають відбиток на всіх нас. Психологи кваліфікують їх як екстремальні, а емоційну відповідь на них називають «травмати...чним стресом». Нічого ненормального в цьому немає, адже це нормальні реакції на ненормальні події (тобто такі, що виходять за рамки звичного людського досвіду). Страждають від травматичного стресу не лише безпосередні учасники подій, а й ті, хто постійно живе в тривозі, напрузі, спостерігаючи за подіями в ЗМІ або переживаючи за близьких, які можуть бути в небезпеці. Це стосується і дітей. Навіть не розуміючи дета- лей того, що відбувається навколо, вони бачать напруженість і страх батьків, чують тривожні висловлювання. Тому, вірогідно, дітям може знадобитися допомога у відновленні рівноваги. Адже саме дорослі — чи не єдине джерело спокою для них. Ми виклали кілька порад, як поводитися в склад- них ситуаціях і навчитися розуміти себе і своїх дітей. Сподіваємося, вони стануть вам у пригоді.

Growing evidence indicates that large proportions of children around the world experience physical, sexual and emotional violence every year, with enormous implications for human rights, public health and economic and social development.1 Over the last five years, national governments and Together f...or Girls – a global public-private partnership comprising UNICEF,
other United Nations (UN) agencies, the United States (US) Government and various private sector agencies – have worked to mobilize and sustain a global movement to end violence against children, with a focus on sexual violence against girls.

Das »Incoming« von ausländischen Freiwilligen nach Deutschland ist entwicklungspolitisch absolut sinnvoll und von hoher Priorität, da es jungen Menschen aus dem globalen Süden die Möglichkeit gibt, zeitlich befristet an dem seit 50 Jahren eingespielten Lern- und Orientie-rungsangebot der Zivil...gesellschaft in Deutschland teilzunehmen. Die IncomerInnen selbst und nach ihrer Rückkehr auch ihre Heimatgesellschaften profitieren von der Persönlichkeitsentwicklung, von den Erfahrungen in einer gemeinwohlorientierten Tätigkeit und von den – vor allem in den Seminaren aufbereiteten – Eindrücken eines Lebens in einem sozialen und freiheitlichen Rechtsstaat.

Fact Book on WHO Level I and Level II monitoring indicators - To monitor the progress of efforts to improve the global medicines situation, WHO has developed a system of indicators that measure important aspects of a country’s pharmaceutical situation. Level 1 indicators measure the existence and ...performance of key national pharmaceutical structures and processes. Level II indicators measure key outcomes of these structures and processes in the areas of access, product quality and rational use. These indicators can be used to assess progress over time; to compare situations between countries; and to reassess and prioritize efforts based on the results.
This Fact Book gives the results of the assessment of Level I indicators conducted in 2003 and of Level II indicator surveys conducted between 2002 and 2004
