This 35-page report summarizes the country visit of a team that conducted an assessment mission on November 20-24, 2017, to discuss antimicrobial resistance (AMR) issues in Belgium, with the overall objective to provide an observation-based assessment of the situation in Belgium regarding prevention and control of AMR through prudent use of antibiotics and infection control. Belgium was one of the first European countries to implement a national antibiotic policy coordinating commission, but the success of AMR control will depend on increasing the level of urgency for change among all prescribers, stakeholders, and the general public.

This 22-minute presentation discusses the progress, ongoing challenges, and possibilities in reducing the vulnerability of children to disasters. Through her experience working directly with children, including a young survivor of Hurricane Katrina, the speaker gives emergency managers five specific ideas to reduce the vulnerability of children to disasters: Ensure that every child attends a safe school; educate children about risk and risk reduction; listen to and involve children so they can help themselves, other children, and adults; encourage children’s ingenuity and creativity; and cultivate anchors, advocates, and strong institutions for children.
