Abstract:

Background: The World Health Organisation (WHO) Africa region experiences multiple public health emergencies (PHEs) annually. PHEs have been documented to affect the provision of health services including immunisation. To our knowledge, there is a scarcity of studies characterising PHEs and the performance of national immunisation programmes (NIPs) in countries within the WHO Africa region that have experienced PHEs. This study assessed PHEs (armed conflicts, disasters, and disease outbreaks) and the performance of NIPs in the context of PHEs using global and regional immunisation targets. Met

The concept of global governance is nowadays commonly used for studying international relations.

Global governance occurs on multiple levels; WHO occurs at the global level whereas individual national states occur at the lower level.

Many people may have become increasingly concerned about the risks associated with vaccines. At the same time, there is a lack of qualitative research on the impact of various vaccinations schedules on individuals' physio-psychological health. In addition, "mandatory" versus "nonmandatory, but recommended" vaccines are still under debate in some Western countries. The purpose of this ethnographic study was to provide an in-depth understanding of the beliefs, experiences, and perceptions of adolescents, parents, and health care providers regarding different vaccination schedules.

Abstract:

Les politiques de lutte contre les maladies plus généralement et celles relatives au paludisme singulièrement, mises en œuvre depuis 1948, ont connu des fortunes diverses dans leur application à l'échelle locale. L'exemple de la Côte d'Ivoire que cette recherche a mis en lumière en est la parfaite illustration. Ainsi, de la politique «d'éradication du paludisme» qui couvre la période 1955-1970, à laquelle succède celle du contrôle du paludisme depuis cette date, les directives de lutte, qui accompagnent les grands programmes de santé de l'institution internationale, ont été diversement appliqu

Abstract:

La notion de Réadaptation à Base Communautaire (RBC), promue par l'OMS, a pour objectif de favoriser l'intégration des personnes en situation de handicap. Cette stratégie est née du constat de la nécessité de conjuguer les efforts des différents acteurs (les personnes handicapées et leurs familles, la communauté, les services sociaux, les services de santé, d'éducation et de formation) pour assurer la réussite et la pérennité des actions. Développé dans les pays en voie de développement, le concept de Réadaptation à Base Communautaire s'applique également aux pays industrialisés, où il est sou

These drugs are under patent protection by companies in the developed world and the patents raise the prices above the level of affordability for HIV infected persons in South Africa and Zimbabwe.

Abstract:

Cette thèse examine l’apport du travail statistique à la normalisation de la vaccination en France, des années 1950 au milieu des années 1990, une période au cours de laquelle la vaccination a fait l’objet de peu de controverses. Au moyen d’opérations statistiques de rationalisation, de régulation et de justification, l’épidémiologie (entendue comme un ensemble de pratiques plutôt qu’une discipline universitaire autonome) a largement contribué à maintenir cet état de fait – un processus que je qualifie de routinisation. L’enquête est construite sur des archives issues de diverses institutions,

Abstract:

La lutte contre les fléaux sanitaires enregistre un nombre pléthorique d’acteurs, opérant avec des instruments et des stratégies différents. Cette pluralité d’acteurs et d’instruments affecte la cohérence du cadre organico-fonctionel de protection du droit à la santé et pose un véritable défi de coordination. Notre étude axée sur le cas spécifique du Sénégal, interroge les mécanismes actuels de coordination qui ont montré leurs limites à l’épreuve de la pratique, tant au niveau national qu’international. Dans l’ordre interne sénégalais, l’impératif de coordination des actions sanitaires est pl

Dans les pays en développement (PED), les problèmes engendrés par le VIH/SIDA et l’inaccessibilité des antirétroviraux (ARV) s’avèrent être la cause de ravages extrêmement préoccupants à tous les niveaux (démographique, politique, social et économique). Dans le cadre de l’Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC), et notamment de l’Accord sur les aspects des droits de propriété intellectuelle qui touchent au commerce (« Accord sur les ADPIC »), un nombre croissant de PED ont ou sont en train d’intégrer un standard international de protection des brevets de produits et de procédés pharmaceutiques
