Rehabilitation Treatment Planning for Common Conflict and Emergency Related Injuries





Rehabilitation Treatment Planning for Common Conflict and Emergency Related Injuries

Health


Fractures, amputations, and acquired brain injuries are common in conflict and emergency settings where only limited outpatient support or rehabilitation services may be available. Humanity & Inclusion have designed a powerful and interactive online tool to support rehabilitation and health workers in challenging settings. This performance support tool will guide you through the clinical reasoning process to develop rehabilitation treatment plans for common conflict and emergency related injuries.





Note: This tool was designed by clinicians with years of experience to support qualified health professionals. It does not qualify you to work outside your scope of practice. The advice in this tool is aimed at rehabilitation professionals and should only be followed by qualified health professionals.

Do you work with someone who is driving lasting change in the humanitarian system?


Driving systemic change within the humanitarian system is a hard, long process, with challenges and attempts that fail along the way. So, we want to celebrate those who are grappling with these challenges in order to create a lasting change. 

As part of Start Network’s 10-year anniversary, we will celebrate 10 change makers who have made or are making a considerable impact within their community, country, region, organisation or the wider system. These can be individuals, teams, or entire organisations.

For details about how to nominate, download the nomination pack in EnglishFrench and Spanish. If you are interested in joining the volunteer judging panel, please send an email to communications@startnetwork.org

The deadline to nominate is Monday 3 August 2020.


 


Society of Environmental Journalists. Webinar Reminder - THURSDAY - Covering Climate, COVID-19, and the Economy: Is a Green Recovery Possible?




As COVID-19 continues to consume our daily lives and economies, governments and leaders are calling for a “green recovery.” The vision is bold, but will it work?

With economies opening up and emissions once again rising, we face decisions about infrastructure, industry, and regulation that will have enduring impacts on our climate and our health. What do journalists need to know to cover these decisions and help the public understand the options and tradeoffs?

Join us this Thursday, July 16 from 1-2 PM ET, for an #SEJ2020 webinar for journalists seeking a report on the connections between climate, COVID-19, and the economy, and the potential for a green recovery.

All journalists welcome.

This webinar will be recorded and available on our website a day or two after the event.

Speakers: 
·     Anne L. Kelly, Vice President of Government Relations, Ceres
·     Jonathan Pershing, Program Director, Environment, Hewlett Foundation, and former Special Envoy for Climate Change, U.S. Department of State 
·     Justin Worland, Correspondent, Energy & Environment, TIME Magazine

Moderator: 
·     Nick Sobczyk, Reporter, E&E News
