War: how to protect health of women and children?

War: how to protect health of women and children?
After having conducted a study of the health situation in armed conflicts, the international consortium BRANCH, of which UNIGE is a member, calls for urgent action to improve the health of civilians, especially of women, adolescents and children.

More than half of the world’s population of women and children live in countries affected by armed conflicts, and countries with the highest neonatal mortality rates in the world are almost all at war. In addition, the majority of the tens of millions of people forcibly displaced each year (71 million in 2019) are women and children who, in such precarious situation, are at high risk of deteriorating health and nutritional status, but also of violence – rape, mutilation or forced recruitment by armed groups notably. The BRANCH Consortium brings together an international network of academic institutions, including the University of Geneva (UNIGE) through its Centre for Humanitarian Studies, and humanitarian actors. It publishes in a special issue of The Lancet, a series of five articles aimed at better understanding the needs in terms of sexuality, reproduction and maternal and child health in situations of armed conflict in order to define short and long term response strategies. This original work also responds to the need of scientifically validated evidence to guide humanitarian action.

Uniting a global WASH response with an evidence-based approach: the WASH Severity Classification - World

Uniting a global WASH response with an evidence-based approach: the WASH Severity Classification
Format
When the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) was originally created in 2004, the impetus came from the humanitarian community’s need to understand food security crises faster and with greater precision, so as to shape a more effective response. The IPC has since then become a landmark in the fight against food insecurity. Decades later however, a similar approach- where vast and various data sources are fed into a recognized and trusted analysis system- has yet to emerge in the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) sector. With this in mind, a new inter-agency global initiative was launched, with the support and early buy-in from over twenty aid organizations. As the pilots of this new approach have yielded their first results, we are glad to introduce the new WASH Severity Classification (WSC).
