Depuis la déclaration des premiers cas de sida au Burkina Faso, les programmes nationaux successifs de lutte contre l’épidémie ont totalement occulté les enjeux sanitaires liés à la consommation de produits psychoactifs. Ainsi, ce n’est qu’en 2010 que les usagers-ères de drogues ont ét...é inclus-es dans la liste des groupes vulnérables ciblés par le Cadre National Stratégique 2011-2015. En dehors des publications officielles, qui traitent les drogues sous l’angle de la criminalité, et de l’étude menée par l’association communautaire Kasabati en 2011, limitée à la ville de Ouagadougou, peu de travaux ont été réalisés pour déterminer l’impact de la consommation de produits psychoactifs sur la dynamique de l’épidémie à VIH.

En 2014, la soixante-septième Assemblée Mondiale de la Santé a exprimé sa préoccupation croissante au sujet de la situation
de la RAM, et elle a exhorté les pays membres à renforcer leurs programmes d’action nationale ainsi que la collaboration

de GLASS est de permettre la collecte, l’analyse et l’échange avec les pays de données standardisées, validées, comparables
sur la résistance aux antimicrobiens.

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively drug-resistant
tuberculosis (XDR-TB) increasingly occur in resource-constrained settings.
In the context of a national response to MDR- and XDR-TB, health workers in
TB clinics (in district hospitals and some accredited health centres) wil...l need
to diagnose MDR-TB, initiate second-line anti-TB drugs, and monitor MDRTB
treatment.
Management of MDR-TB: a field guide was created to help health workers
carry out these tasks. It is a job aid that medical officers and TB nurses
are meant use frequently during the day for quick reference. This module
