UN/ISDR Senior Regional Officer for Africa Africa definitely is expecting much from WCDR. But before expecting much, Feng Min Kan shouldn’t we first contribute a lot to WCDR II? Indeed, as one expert put it: “A . conference is like a computer database, its output depends on the input”. Editor Alain Valency R. What should Africa expect mostly from WCDR? General Production 1. That the rest of the world knows that even though Africa is not the most Noroarisoa Rakotondrandria disaster-prone continent, its high vulnerability to disasters is such that it is the most affected continent; Design & Layout Mario Barrantes 2.

BCPR serves to bring focus and substantive support to UNDP’s overall strategy and range of disaster reduction and recovery activities, involving UNDP Country Offices, Regional Bureaux and specialized agencies. As the focal point in UNDP for the ISDR and within the framework of the goals and objectives of the UN/ISDR, BCPR, in direct collaboration with UNDP Country Offices, provides substantive and financial support to operational activities to strengthen capacities for disaster reduction to enable national governments, regional organizations, local authorities, civil society and other stakeholders to design and implement relevant and effective policy frameworks, strategies and plans, programmes and projects to manage and reduce disaster risks. In Africa, BCPR’s Disaster Reduction Unit is collaborating closely with UN/ISDR to provide support to the promotion and implementation of disaster risk reduction at regional, sub-regional, national and local levels and within the United Nations and other agencies and organizations through: • Increased disaster risk management capacity and institution building with national governments, regional and sub-regional organizations, UN Country Offices and other stakeholders • Implementation of sustainable recovery programmes that emphasise long-term risk reduction • Development and promotion of the dissemination of knowledge and information on disaster risk reduction through new and existing networks • The integration of disaster risk reduction into country development programmes, the UNDAF and CCF • Supporting programmes at regional and sub-regional level that aim to enhance national programmes • Working collaboratively with other UN agencies and national and international organizations.

Today, the achievements may seem meagre when compared to the objectives of the BPoA and the increasing challenges faced by SIDS in areas of trade, security and environment. This is true for most developing countries, but particularly so for SIDS. The impediments are daunting, whether they be natural, indigenous or originate from global conditions. While the responsibility for meeting their socio-economic aspirations should rest primarily with the SIDS themselves, the world community, including strategic part- ners, UN system organizations and the private as well as in climate variability and change and sector, have the duty to commit resources and their impacts on sea-level rise.

  • Prévalence Du Diabète Sucré, Chez Le Sujet Âgé De Plus De 65 Ans, Dans La Wilaya D’Alger
    ACTUALITÉ Prévalence du diabète sucré, chez le sujet âgé de plus de 65 ans, dans la wilaya d’Alger Par M. Chiad 1, I. Ararem 2, A. Aouni 2, D. Iftene 1 * Résumé Introduction: Toutes les études disponibles, actuellement, s’accordent à dire que la prévalence du diabète est supérieure chez les sujets âgés, à celle retrouvé chez les sujets plus jeunes. L’étude de Chami, dans la commune de Sidi Bel-Abbès, l’a estimée à 26,7%. Dans le but de déterminer la prévalence des principaux facteurs de risque cardiovasculaires, chez les sujets âgés de plus de 65 ans, dans la wilaya d’Alger, nous avons réalisé cette étude. Matériel et méthode: Il s’agit d’une étude transversale, descriptive, de type ménage, dans la wilaya d’Alger (25 communes tirées au sort) entre le 22 / 08 / 2015 et le 01 / 01 / 2016. Les sujets, âgés de 65 ans et plus, recrutés, ont bénéficié d’une glycémie veineuse à jeun. Un sujet est déclaré diabétique en présence d’un diabète suivi et ou /traité, ou une glycémie veineuse supérieure, ou égale, à 1,26 g/l. Le résultat final a été réajusté sur la population âgée algéroise, selon le recensement de l’ONS (2008). Résultats: 451 sujets (244 hommes et 207 femmes) ont été inclus dans l’étude. La moyenne d’âge était de 73,06 ans +/- 6,51. 134 sujets (29,7%) étaient suivis pour diabète. Ce dernier était plus fréquent chez les femmes (33,3% vs 26,6% p: ns). Notre étude a permis la découverte de 27 sujets non connus diabétiques, avec une glycémie > 1,26, dont 14 femmes et 13 hommes (4 sujets avec une glycémie > 2g /l) et le diagnostic du diabète a été confirmé par un deuxième prélèvement, chez 17 parmi eux.
