COVID-19 has turned the world upside down. Everything has been impacted. How we live and interact with each other, how we work and communicate, how we move around and travel. Every aspect of our lives has been affected.

Liebe Lehrende,
das Recht auf Gesundheit ist ein weltweites Menschenrecht. Dennoch gestalten sich die vielen ge-sundheitlichen Facetten in jedem Land der Erde ganz unterschiedlich. So kann dieses Menschen-recht in vielen Ländern leider oftmals nicht vollständig oder sogar überhaupt nicht eingeha...lten werden und viele Menschen leiden bis heute unter gesundheitlichen Problemen, denen sie hilflos ausgeliefert sind.Die DAHW Deutsche Lepra- und Tuberkulosehilfe e.V. hat sich daher bereits vor über 60 Jahren zum Ziel gesetzt, dieser Ungerechtigkeit entgegenzuwirken. Da Gesundheit vor allem in den ärmeren Ländern der Erde nicht rechtmäßig gewährleistet werden kann, liegt der Fokus der Organisation auf der Bekämpfung der Krankheiten der Armut und ihren Folgen. So besteht die Vision der DAHW da-rin, mit ihrer Tätigkeit dazu beizutragen, eine Welt zu schaffen, in der kein Mensch unter Lepra, Tuberkulose und anderen Krankheiten der Armut und ihren Folgen wie Behinderung und Ausgren-zung leidet. Dafür ist sie in 19 Ländern der Erde tätig.Der Einsatz für weltweite Gerechtigkeit und Gesundheit kann jedoch nur gelingen, wenn jeder Mensch dafür seine Verantwortung und Handlungsmöglichkeiten erkennt. So möchten wir mit die-sem Arbeitsheft Ihnen und Ihrer Lerngruppe Material zur Hand geben, das sich intensiver mit dem Thema „Gesundheit weltweit“ auseinandersetzt. Durch unterschiedliche Arbeitsaufträge soll damit das persönliche Bewusstsein über die Facetten der Gesundheitsthematik gefördert, zum eigenen Urteilen über Ungerechtigkeiten angeregt und zum selbstständigen Handeln für eine bessere Ein-haltung des Menschenrechtes motiviert werden.
Wir wünschen viel Spaß dabei!

Ghana's attempt to regulate health care waste management started in 2002 with the development of guidelines on health care waste manage-ment by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In 2006, the Ghana Health Service (GHS) also developed the Health Care Waste Management Policy and Guidelines as ...a single document.
Although awareness on Health Care Waste Management (HCWM) has improved in recent years, there is the need for a systematic approach to improve on effective segregation, safe collection, and storage, as well as ultimate treatment before disposal.
This guideline seeks to ensure that HCW is managed effectively in compliance with existing International Conventions that Ghana is a signatory to, national laws and regulations, and others to be passed in future.
Recommendations for better management of HCW in the nation's health care facilities have been presented in this document. Also, standard operating procedures (SOPs) have been developed to provide
guidance to various levels of the health facilities.
