Title A name given to the resource <h2>Les effets à la santé reliés aux nanoparticules</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>Québec is very active in research in the field of nanoparticle development and nanotechnology. More than 35 production companies already exist or are in the start-up phase. It is believed that the number of Québec workers potentially exposed will grow over the next few years. To prevent the development of occupational diseases or the occurrence of accidents, the IRSST began a review of world-wide scientific knowledge to evaluate whether there are known risks associated with this emerging sector. An initial report addressing the health effects (R-451) shows that a limited number of toxicological studies exist, but all of these studies conclude that there are some health risks following exposure to nanoparticles. Although numerous risks are associated with the nature of nanoparticles, it has now been clearly established that toxicity is related to the surface area of these particles and not their mass, and that, for a given substance, the toxicity is much higher when it is of nanometric size than micrometric size. - The second report (R-455) summarizes current knowledge about nanoparticles, their synthesis and applications, health and safety risks, and the challenges in evaluating occupational exposure. Also discussed are nanoparticle-related occupational health and safety control and prevention aspects.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100185.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100185.html</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A review of the role of education and knowledge in disaster risk reduction</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>This review examines good practices to reduce disaster risk through education, knowledge and innovation (including efforts to protect schools from extreme natural events). It looks critically and strategically at current activities in order to identify gaps, opportunities in the form of synergisms and partnerships, and centres of innovation. Education, knowledge and awareness are critical to building the ability to reduce losses from natural hazards, as well as the capacity to respond to and recover effectively from extreme natural events when they do, inevitably, occur.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.unisdr.org/publications/v.php?id=609" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.unisdr.org/publications/v.php?id=609</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This guide outlines a method for estimating the disease burden at national or local levels that are associated with maternal and child malnutrition. The goal is to help policy-makers and others quantify the increased risk associated with malnutrition, in terms of attributable mortality and morbidity, at country or local levels. The estimates will allow policy-makers to compare the disease burden of malnutrition for different countries, or regions within countries, and enable resources to be deployed more effectively. Repeated assessments will also allow trends to be monitored and the impact of interventions to be evaluated.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.who.int/quantifying_ehimpacts/publications/MalnutritionEBD12.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.who.int/quantifying_ehimpacts/publications/MalnutritionEBD12.pdf</a> Type The nature or genre of the resource PDF
