A summary of the national drug situation
L'application de la technologie de santé numérique se développe rapidement en Afrique, dans
le but d'améliorer la prestation des services de santé et d'atteindre plus efficacement les
communautés éloignées et mal desservies. D'autre part, l'absence de lignes directrices et de
normes da...ns l'ensemble du continent rend difficile le partage des données de manière
significative sur l'ensemble du continent. C'est pourquoi les Centres africains de contrôle et
de prévention des maladies (Africa CDC) ont mis en place un groupe de travail composé de 24
membres afin de fournir une expertise et des conseils pour l'élaboration des lignes directrices
et des normes de l'UA en matière de HIE. Les membres du groupe de travail étaient des
experts en la matière travaillant en Afrique et au niveau international sur la collecte, l'analyse
et l'échange d'informations sur la santé. Certains de ces experts avaient participé à des
consultations antérieures sur la définition de la stratégie des systèmes d'information sur la
santé d'Afrique CDC. Un président, un coprésident et un secrétaire ont été élus pour impliquer
les membres de la tasé force dans différents groupes de travail techniques.

This valuable and timely guidebook represents an innovative contribution to enhancing quality education through textbooks. It will change the way textbook authors, publishers and educators, as well as governments of the United Nations Member States, see the poten...tial of educational media at a time of growing violent extremism, changing notions of national identity, increasingly globalized and diverse communities, and environmental destruction. The need for education that promotes peace, social justice and global citizenship has become more urgent in a world of greater uncertainty. This guidebook builds on the momentum of Agenda 2030, providing a toolkit to enable textbook authors to place ESD at the core of their subjects in ways that are at once practical for them and interesting and relevant to the students.

Maternal and child malnutrition is a significant public health problem in South Sudan. Among children aged 6-59 months, 31% are stunted, 28% are underweight, and nearly 23% are acutely malnourished of which 13% are estimated to suffer from moderate ...acute malnutrition and 10% from severe acute malnutrition.
Overall, South Sudan’s nutrition situation is worrisome, with GAM persistently above the emergency threshold in the Greater Upper Nile, Northern Bahr el Ghazal and Warrap states. Though data on micronutrient deficiencies is scanty, Vitamin A Supplementation (VAS) among children 6-59 months stood at only 2.6% in 2010, showing low uptake (SHHS, 2010). This is against a backdrop of high morbidity levels and a negligible proportion of children 6 to 23 months receiving at least the recommended minimum acceptable diet. In order to ensure optimal child growth, it is essential to ensure good nutrition and basic health care from pregnancy through two years of age (the first 1000 days).
