Preliminary work involved integrating laboratory testing for skin NTDs other than Buruli ulcer, such as cutaneous leishmaniasis, mycetoma, leprosy and yaws, while extending the network’s reach to encompass additional laboratories.

The WHO consolidated TB guidelines will gradually group all TB recommendations and will be complemented by ma...tching modules of a consolidated operational handbook. [1] The handbook will provide practical advice on how to put in place the recommendations at the scale needed to achieve national and global impact. The first handbook module in the series will be on the programmatic management of TB preventive treatment and will accompany the 2020 guidelines.

                                                                For education to be competency-based and effective, appropriate training methodologies have to  be used to support the learner to have the appropriate knowledge and to translate this knowledge  into skills and competencies. Such education and training should lead to a change in attitudes, beliefs  a...nd values, thus making the palliative care graduate able to do their job very effectively. To that end,  APCA has developed this new resource, which is a guide to effective teaching methodologies in  palliative care, targeting educators and trainers across Africa.  This guide has been developed to enable educators and trainers to acquire knowledge and skills  for using effective, practical, participatory and experiential teaching methods, and to use these in  extending learning to all health care providers in Africa. The methods presented in this guide are  based on existing practical and documented evidence of effective palliative care education.
