HAT diagnosis in non-endemic countries is rare and can be challenging, but alertness and
surveillance must be maintained to contribute to WHO’s elimination goals. Early detection is
particularly important as it co...nsiderably improves the prognosis.

More and more countries are completing their epidemiological mapping of trachoma in suspected
endemic districts and are preparing to distribute Zithromax® in those districts where the prevalence of
“trachomatous inflammation – follicular” (TF) is above 5% among children aged 1-9 years. Mass... drug
administration (MDA) is normally at the district level and targets the whole population with Zithromax®
tablets to those 5 years old and above; Zithromax® suspension for children between 6 months and 5
years of age; and tetracycline eye ointment 1% for infants up to 6 months old.

ICTC’s 2022-2030 strategic plan spans the critical period running to the end of 2030, the year by which we are striving to achieve the elimination of trachoma as a public health problem. This strategic plan is in alignment with the NTD road map, Ending the neglect to attain the Sustainable Develop...ment Goals: a road map for neglected tropical diseases 2021−2030.

synthesizes most relevant data and information on climate change, disaster risk reduction, and adaptation actions and policies
at the country level. The country profile se...ries are designed as a quick reference source for development practitioners to better
integrate climate resilience in development planning and policy making.

This module carries pre-training entry level assessment as well as hands on exercise manual on Geographic Information Systems, Remote Sensing, Geographic Positioning System (GPS) and some applications of these technologies on Disaster Risk Management (DRM) especially for hazard mapping, monitoring a...nd risk assessment module as well as the damage assessment module. Practical manual developed using open source products like Quantum GIS , RStudio, Google Earth Pro and Google Earth Engine.
This module can also can be used by other training facilitators, non-technical professionals and selflearners as well. However, it is strongly recommended that training participants and self-learners already have some basic knowledge of Computer Basic, Geoinformatics and disaster management.

l’IMC et le gain de poids gestationnel sont des facteurs déterminants des risques de
résultats de grossesse, de la santé de la mère et de l’enfant. Cette étude analyse l’incidence de la
nutrition chez les femmes enceintes sur la santé néonatale au Bénin. Les résultats d’estimation... par les
équations simultanées montrent que le gain de poids gestationnel insuffisant ou excessif a des effets
néfastes aussi bien sur la santé de la mère que sur celui de l’enfant. L’étude montre que la majorité des
femmes béninoises étudiées, avec un IMC faible ou normal n’atteignent pas le gain de poids
gestationnel recommandé en fin de grossesse. La plupart des nouveau-nés de petits poids de naissance
sont nés de femme dont l’IMC est normal, ce qui renforce la théorie bien connue que l’IMC n’est pas un
bon indicateur de la malnutrition chez la femme enceinte.
