A Handbook for country programmes
Singing to the Lions est un programme de formation gratuit (guide de l’animateur, supplément et vidéo) conçu par CRS pour aider les enfants et les jeunes à réduire l’impact de la violence et des abus dans leur vie.

Chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma and
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, kill more than
four million people every year and affect hundreds
of millions more. These diseases erode the health
and well-being of the patients and have a negative
impact on families and societies. Women ...and
children are particularly vulnerable, especially those
in low and middle income countries, where they are
exposed on a daily basis to indoor air pollution from
solid fuels for cooking and heating. In high income

for chronic respiratory diseases, and in some of
these countries, tobacco use among women and
young people is still increasing.
