This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2018 FAO-OIE-WHO (Tripartite) zoonoses guide, “Taking A Multisectoral, One Health Approach: A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries” (2018 TZG) is being jointly developed to provide member countries with practical guidance on OH approaches to build national mechanisms for multisectoral coordination, communication, and collaboration to address zoonotic disease threats at the animal-human-environment interface. The 2018 TZG updates and expands on the guidance in the one previous jointly-developed, zoonoses-specific guidance document: the 2008 Tripartite “Zoonotic Diseases: A Guide to Establishing Collaboration between Animal and Human Health Sectors at the Country Level”, developed in WHO South-East Asia Region and Western Pacific Region. The 2018 TZG supports building by countries of the resilience and capacity to address emerging and endemic zoonotic diseases such as avian influenza, rabies, Ebola, and Rift Valley fever, as well as food-borne diseases and antimicrobial resistance, and to minimize their impacts on health, livelihoods, and economies. It additionally supports country efforts to implement WHO International Health Regulations (2005) and OIE international standards, to address gaps identified through external and internal health system evaluations, and to achieve targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. The 2018 TZG provides relevant country ministries and agencies with lessons learned and good practices identified from country-level experiences in taking OH approaches for preparedness, prevention, detection and response to zoonotic disease threats, and provides guidance on multisectoral communication, coordination, and collaboration. It informs on regional and country-level OH activities and relevant unisectoral and multisectoral tools available for countries to use.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le risque est une propriété inhérente de chaque projet. En effet, tout projet est soumis, durant l'ensemble de son cycle de vie, à de nombreux risques qui sont d'origine interne et externe dont la maîtrise est un enjeu crucial pour la réussite du projet. Beaucoup d'outils de gestion des risques ont été développés, mais ont la faiblesse récurrente de ne représenter que le projet et traitent le risque de façon isolée. Les risques affectant le projet et étant générés par ce dernier, il est nécessaire de prendre en compte les nombreuses et complexes interactions entre projet, environnement et risques.Les travaux réalisés visent à mettre en place une méthode de gestion des risques inhérents aux projets en général et plus particulièrement aux projets du domaine compétitif des énergies renouvelables.Cette méthode s'appuie sur un cadre formel et des outils applicatifs permettant d'optimiser le management des risques liés au projet. En effet, un cadre de modélisation servant de support à la méthode et ayant pour but de faciliter la modélisation du projet en tant que système complexe a été déterminé. De plus, la représentation des interactions inhérentes au projet et la prise de décision ont été rendues possibles par la nature des attributs caractérisant les entités du projet et de son environnement, et les différents modèles d'évaluation, d'interprétation et de choix des alternatives. Cette méthode a été adaptée à la prise en compte des incertitudes inhérentes au projet et à son environnement. Pour cela, nous avons d'abord procédé à l'identification et à la description des incertitudes via la réalisation d'une base de connaissances relatives aux facteurs de risques et à la documentation des variables incertaines. Les incertitudes ont ensuite été formalisées, propagée et évaluées.
Download or read book L analyse des risques written by Gilles Deleuze and published by EMS Editions. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis le XVIIIe siècle, le développement des sociétés industrielles pose la question de la maîtrise des risques. D’abord centrée sur la protection de l’outil de production et des personnes, la maîtrise des risques est devenue aujourd’hui une activité intégrée au pilotage des systèmes complexes, à la fois un objectif et un levier de management. Les risques font partie intégrante de la vie des entreprises et leurs acteurs doivent prendre des décisions et mener des activités à risque, créatrices de valeur. Comment à ce niveau, gérer la contradiction apparente entre une activité nécessairement à risque non nul et un environnement sociétal peu propice à accepter le risque ? Cet ouvrage propose des pistes pour appréhender des situations complexes par le moyen de l’analyse des risques, il propose de formaliser un vocabulaire, et donner des points de repères pour aider à comprendre et analyser les risques. Destiné aux personnes désireuses de connaître et traiter l’analyse des risques et ses enjeux, dans le cadre d’une organisation (chefs de projet, chargés d’analyses de risques, préparateurs d’interventions, ingénieurs, technicien, manageurs,...), il propose des pistes deréflexion à partir d’expériences, modèles ou de concepts mobilisés lors d’analyses d’activités à risques ou d’actions de développement de compétences. Même si l’expérience partagée ici provient d’organisations industrielles, de nombreux éléments sont aisément déclinables à une organisation financière, une société de service, un service public, une collectivité locale, un service de santé.

Download or read book Smaller Quicker Cheaper written by Daniel A. Wagner and published by United Nations Education, Scientific & Cultural Organization. This book was released on 2011 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effective use of educational assessments is fundamental to improving learning. However, effective use does not refer only to the technical parameters or statistical methodologies. Learning assessments in use todaywhether large-scale or household surveys or hybrid (smaller, quicker, cheaper or SQC)have varied uses and purposes. The present volume provides a review of learning assessments, their status in terms of the empirical knowledge base, and some new ideas for improving their effectiveness, particularly for those children most in need. It is argued here that SQC learning assessments have the potential to enhance educational accountability, increase transparency, and support a greater engagement of stakeholders with an interest in improving learning. In addition, countries need a sustained policy to guide assessment choices, including a focus on poor and marginalized populations.

Download or read book Patient Involvement in Health Technology Assessment written by Karen M. Facey and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to offer a comprehensive guide to involving patients in health technology assessment (HTA). Defining patient involvement as patient participation in the HTA process and research into patient aspects, this book includes detailed explanations of approaches to participation and research, as well as case studies. Patient Involvement in HTA enables researchers, postgraduate students, HTA professionals and experts in the HTA community to study these complementary ways of taking account of patients’ knowledge, experiences, needs and preferences. Part I includes chapters discussing the ethical rationale, terminology, patient-based evidence, participation and patient input. Part II sets out methodology including: Qualitative Evidence Synthesis, Discrete Choice Experiments, Analytical Hierarchy Processes, Ethnographic Fieldwork, Deliberative Methods, Social Media Analysis, Patient-Reported Outcome Measures, patients as collaborative research partners and evaluation. Part III contains 15 case studies setting out current activities by HTA bodies on five continents, health technology developers and patient organisations. Each part includes discussion chapters from leading experts in patient involvement. A final chapter reflects on the need to clearly define the goals for patient involvement within the context of the HTA to identify the optimal approach. With cohesive contributions from more than 80 authors from a variety of disciplines around the globe, it is hoped this book will serve as a catalyst for collaboration to further develop patient involvement to improve HTA. "If you’re not involving patients, you're not doing HTA!" - Dr. Brian O’Rourke, President and CEO of CADTH, Chair of INAHTA

Download or read book Faecal Sludge Management written by Linda Strande and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is estimated that literally billions of residents in urban and peri-urban areas of Africa, Asia, and Latin America are served by onsite sanitation systems (e.g. various types of latrines and septic tanks). Until recently, the management of faecal sludge from these onsite systems has been grossly neglected, partially as a result of them being considered temporary solutions until sewer-based systems could be implemented. However, the perception of onsite or decentralized sanitation technologies for urban areas is gradually changing, and is increasingly being considered as long-term, sustainable options in urban areas, especially in low- and middle-income countries that lack sewer infrastructures. This is the first book dedicated to faecal sludge management. It compiles the current state of knowledge of the rapidly evolving field of faecal sludge management, and presents an integrated approach that includes technology, management, and planning based on Sandecs 20 years of experience in the field. Faecal Sludge Management: Systems Approach for Implementation and Operation addresses the organization of the entire faecal sludge management service chain, from the collection and transport of sludge, and the current state of knowledge of treatment options, to the final end use or disposal of treated sludge. The book also presents important factors to consider when evaluating and upscaling new treatment technology options. The book is designed for undergraduate and graduate students, and engineers and practitioners in the field who have some basic knowledge of environmental and/or wastewater engineering.
Download or read book The Problem of Health Technology written by Pascale Lehoux and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health technology is a pivotal locus of change and controversy in health care systems, and The Problem of Health Technology offers a comprehensive and novel analysis of the topic. The book illuminates the scientific and policy arguments that are currently deployed in industrialized countries by addressing the perspectives of clinicians, health care managers, scholars, policymakers, patients, and industry. And by establishing a dialogue between two interdisciplinary fields--Health Technology Assessment and Science and Technology Studies--Pascale Lehoux argues for re-centering the debate around social and political questions rather than questions of affordability, thereby developing an alternative framework for thinking about the implications of health technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Early Grade Reading Assessment (EGRA) measures students' progress towards reading. EGRA gauges early literacy skills through a 15-minute individual oral assessment of five fundamental reading skills. RTI worked with education experts to develop the EGRA in 2006, and it has been piloted and implemented in more than 40 countries. This volume aims to take stock of the substantial amount of information and experience generated through the use of EGRA, and to share this knowledge with practitioners, policymakers, and international donors. Chapters cover not only particular applications of the instrument but also put EGRA in the context of broader issues and developments in literacy and education.
