Das „Abkommen über die Rechtsstellung der Flüchtlinge“- wie der eigentliche Titel der Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention (GFK) lautet – wurde am 28. Juli 1951 verabschiedet. Bis heute ist die GFK das wichtigste internationale Dokument für den Flüchtlingsschutz. Die Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention... war zunächst darauf beschränkt, hauptsächlich europäische Flüchtlinge direkt nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zu schützen. Um den geänderten Bedingungen von Flüchtlingen weltweit gerecht zu werden, wurde der Wirkungsbereich der Konvention mit dem Protokoll von 1967 sowohl zeitlich als auch geografisch erweitert. Insgesamt 147 Staaten sind bisher der Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention und/oder dem Protokoll von 1967 beigetreten.

Experience from Save the Children and partners globally
demonstrates that improvements in education quality go hand-in-hand
with inclusion and access, Flexible, quality, responsive learning
environments will benefit all children and are fundamental to including
marginalised groups like disabled ...children in education.
These guidelines are primarily aimed at education staff trying to
develop inclusive education practices, focussing on including disabled
children in schools.While this book focuses on disabled children, we
hope it will be useful for developing general inclusive education
practices. Community groups and non-governmental organisations, as
well as people working in community-based rehabilitation(CBR) and
the wider disability context, could also use these guidelines to provide
input into inclusive education work.
While the guidelines focus primarily on schools, much of the
information is still relevant to readers working in out-of-school
situations.

Senegal has adopted the World Health Organization–Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS recommended 90-90-90 targets.5 The adoption of this strategy means that the country is expected, by 2020, to have 90% of its population living with HIV diagnosed, 90% of all those diagnosed receiving susta...ined HIV treatment, and 90% of those receiving antiretroviral therapy having suppressed viral load measures.5 To achieve these outcomes, having good clinical laboratory services for diagnosis and follow-up will be critical.6 More specifically, investments will be needed to improve laboratory infrastructure, and to facilitate the access and availability of routine viral load and early infant diagnosis (EID) measures through the implementation of point-of-care (POC) diagnostic platforms along with an efficient and sustainable quality assurance programme.
