Title A name given to the resource <h2>Global environmental change and health</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>This 2-page fact sheet is available in English and is intended to provide awareness to the impact of global environmental change. The intended audience includes public health professionals, educators, as well as environmental health specialists. From the air we breathe and the water we drink to the timber that provides us with materials for fuel and construction, and to fisheries that are the primary source of animal protein for a large proportion of the world’s population, the world’s ecosystems are essential to human health and wellbeing. Nevertheless, human pressure on such ecosystem “services” is increasing. The sustainability of many vital ecosystems has been strained on many fronts, with varying health impacts — some direct, but most indirect and involving complex ecological mechanisms. These global changes are synergistic. They constitute a new type of health challenge; one that transcends the traditional definitions of environmental health issues and that demands a recognition that the foundations of long-term good health — at the personal, community and population level — rely on the continued stability of life-supporting ecosystems.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.who.int/globalchange/publications/globalenvchangebrochure.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.who.int/globalchange/publications/globalenvchangebrochure.pdf</a> Type The nature or genre of the resource PDF Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource <h2>Global Guidance Briefs on HIV interventions for young people</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>A series of seven Guidance Briefs has been developed by the Inter-Agency Task Team (IATT) on HIV and Young People. Membership of the IATT includes UNAIDS, UNDP, UNESCO, UNFPA, UNHCR, UNICEF, UNODC, ILO, WFP, WHO, and the World Bank, along with a growing number of youth networks/associations, donors, civil society, and research institutions. The Briefs comprise one Brief that provides a global overview and is complemented by a separate Brief for most-at-risk young people and five others on HIV interventions among young people provided through different settings/sectors — community, education, health, humanitarian emergencies and the workplace. Each Brief has suggested actions to take at country level and additional resource materials listed. This package of seven Guidance Briefs, based on the latest global evidence, is intended to help United Nations Country Teams and UN Theme Groups on AIDS to provide guidance to their staff members as well as governments, development partners, civil society and other implementing partners on the specific actions that need to be in place to respond effectively to HIV among young people. This document is particularly useful in emergency or disaster situations.
