Taking a Multisectoral One Health Approach : A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries
Author: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Publisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9251312362
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
The 2018 FAO-OIE-WHO (Tripartite) zoonoses guide, “Taking A Multisectoral, One Health Approach: A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries” (2018 TZG) is being jointly developed to provide member countries with practical guidance on OH approaches to build national mechanisms for multisectoral coordination, communication, and collaboration to address zoonotic disease threats at the animal-human-environment interface. The 2018 TZG updates and expands on the guidance in the one previous jointly-developed, zoonoses-specific guidance document: the 2008 Tripartite “Zoonotic Diseases: A Guide to Establishing Collaboration between Animal and Human Health Sectors at the Country Level”, developed in WHO South-East Asia Region and Western Pacific Region. The 2018 TZG supports building by countries of the resilience and capacity to address emerging and endemic zoonotic diseases such as avian influenza, rabies, Ebola, and Rift Valley fever, as well as food-borne diseases and antimicrobial resistance, and to minimize their impacts on health, livelihoods, and economies. It additionally supports country efforts to implement WHO International Health Regulations (2005) and OIE international standards, to address gaps identified through external and internal health system evaluations, and to achieve targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. The 2018 TZG provides relevant country ministries and agencies with lessons learned and good practices identified from country-level experiences in taking OH approaches for preparedness, prevention, detection and response to zoonotic disease threats, and provides guidance on multisectoral communication, coordination, and collaboration. It informs on regional and country-level OH activities and relevant unisectoral and multisectoral tools available for countries to use.

Mining in Africa
Author: Bonnie Campbell
Publisher: IDRC
ISBN: 074532939X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
The continent of Africa is rich in minerals needed by Western economies, but rather than forming the basis for economic growth the mining industry contributes very little to African development Investigating the impact of the 2003 Extractive Industries Review on a number of African countries, the contributors find the root of the problem in the controls imposed on the African countries by the IMF and World Bank. They aim to convince academics, governments and industry that regulation needs to be reformed to create a mining industry favourable towards social, economic and environmental development. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach and provides a historical perspective of each country, making it ideal for students of development studies and development organizations.

Protected Area Management
Author: Barbara Sladonja
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 953510697X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Protected areas are at the base of the most national and international conservation strategies. Due to the many unpredictable elements in ecology matters, each protected area requires a case-specific set of guidelines but a common issue is how to cope with human interaction. The management of protected areas is replete with challenges and the only way to gain understanding and achieve greater management possibilities is to exchange experiences and knowledge. Environmental managers are aware of that and together with scientists are looking for more modern and better solutions, both with respect to natural resources and human interactions in many issues regarding nature protection. This publication presents reviews and research results on protected areas management, as well as 12 case studies derived from around the world with the aim of improving management effectiveness of the protected areas.

L'Assurance maladie universelle en République du Congo : faisabilité, enjeux et perspectives
Author: Fulbert Ibara
Publisher: Librinova
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : fr
Pages : 204
Book Description
En République du Congo, l'Etat a été pendant longtemps le principal producteur des services sanitaires ainsi que la principale source de financement du système de santé en garantissant les soins gratuits pour tous. Mais de nos jours, le principe de gratuité des services de santé est de plus en plus remis en cause. Divers modes de financement des services de santé ont été envisagés, à savoir : le paiement direct, le financement par les contributions publiques (l'impôt) et le recours aux aides extérieures (bilatérales et multilatérales). Les trois premiers modes de financement expérimentés jusque-là, ont montré leurs limites. Des réflexions s'orientent actuellement vers la conception et la mise en oeuvre d'un plan d'assurance maladie qui couvrirait l'ensemble ou, tout au moins, la majorité de la population. Cet état de choses appelle une série d'interrogations dont les principales sont les suivantes : Dans quelles conditions et selon quelles modalités l'assurance maladie peut-elle être mise en oeuvre en République du Congo ? L'organisation actuelle du système de santé peut-elle garantir des prestations nécessaires et répondre aux exigences requises dans le cadre d'une assurance maladie universelle ? Quels sont les obstacles potentiels à un tel projet ? Y a-t-il des mesures pour contourner ces difficultés ? Et quel rôle peut jouer l'Etat dans la réalisation d'une telle oeuvre ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles cet ouvrage tente de répondre.

Women, Religion, and the Gift
Author: Morny Joy
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319431897
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This book introduces the special dynamics of women and their close relationships with the gift in both past and contemporary religious settings. Written from a cross-cultural perspective, it challenges depictions of women’s roles in religion where they have been relegated to compliance with specifically designated gendered attributes. The different chapters contest the resultant stereotypes that deny women agency. Each chapter describes women as engaged in an aspect of religion, from that of ritual specialists, to benefactors and patrons, or even innovators. The volume examines topics such as sainthood and sacrifice so as to refine these ideas in constructive ways that do not devalue women. It also examines the meaning of the term “gift” today, embracing the term in both figurative and literal ways. Such a collection of diverse women’s writings and activities provides a significant contribution to their quest for recognition, and also suggests ways this can be understood and realized today.
