People younger than 20 years comprise 35% of the global population and 40% of the global population of least-developed nations. The number of children - neonates, infants, children, and adolescents up to 19 years of age - who need pediatric palliative care (PPC) each year may be as high as 21 millio...n. Another study found that almost 2.5 million children die each year with serious health related suffering and that more than 98% of these children are in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) (3). While estimates differ, there is no doubt that there is an enormous need for prevention and relief of suffering among children - for PPC.

Humanitarian emergencies result in a breakdown of critical health-care services and often make vulnerable communities dependent on external agencies for care. In resource-constrained settings, this may occur against a backdrop of extreme poverty, malnutrition, insecurity, low literacy and poor infra...structure. Under these circumstances, providing food, water and shelter and limiting communicable disease outbreaks become primary concerns. Where effective and safe vaccines are available to mitigate the risk of disease outbreaks, their potential deployment is a key consideration in meeting emergency health needs. Ethical considerations are crucial when deciding on vaccine deployment. Allocation of vaccines in short supply, target groups, delivery strategies, surveillance and research during acute humanitarian emergencies all involve ethical considerations that often arise from the tension between individual and common good. The authors lay out the ethical issues that policy-makers need to bear in mind when considering the deployment of mass vaccination during humanitarian emergencies, including beneficence (duty of care and the rule of rescue), non-maleficence, autonomy and consent, and distributive and procedural justice

Data on the essential building blocks of mental health systems, including mental health
governance, financing, service delivery, human resources and information, are reported. For
mental health planning, it is important to know not only the level of resources in these six areas,

Dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre d’approches spécifiques à la nutrition telles que les pratiques ANJE pour lutter contre la sous-nutrition, le renforcement de la santé communautaire et du rôle des relais communautaire est essentiel. Si de nombreux projets ont été ...développés en intégrant les relais communautaires comme partenaires d’exécution, un manque d’harmonisation est constaté entre les organisations, notamment lié à une absence de statut des relais.
L’étude a pour objectif d’évaluer le fonctionnement des relais communautaires à travers la revue des politiques de santé communautaire et à partir d’études de cas dans le cadre des activités de prévention de la malnutrition aigüe, au Burkina Faso, Mali et Sénégal. 12 projets portés par 9 ONG ont été retenus, et 8 ont fait l’objet d’une analyse qualitative. Au total, 13 villages ou quartiers urbains ont été visités, couvrant plus de 130 relais communautaires, une quinzaine d’agents de santé et une centaine de représentants de la communauté.

Si le malaise ressenti lorsque l’on se trouve en présence du handicap constitue un invariant culturel (Stiker, 2005), chaque culture lui confère néanmoins une signification particulière (Murphy, 1990). Quelle...s sont alors les spécificités des situations de handicap au Burkina Faso ? Les idées reçues sur le continent africain sont nombreuses (Courade, 2006) : concernant le traitement des personnes handicapées, les représentations oscillent selon Poizat (2007) entre « afro-optimisme » et « afro-pessimisme » ; si la solidarité communautaire est parfois considérée comme garantissant leur non-singularisation (Guilmain-Gauthier & Jacquemin, 1994), les croyances traditionnelles relatives au « monde invisible » sont souvent invoquées comme déterminant à l’inverse leur maltraitance et leur exclusion (Devlieger, 1994).
