WHO EMRO - Strategy/policy

Search

Injuries, violence and disabilities claim a heavy toll on human life and development across the globe, across Regions and within countries. If the general trends persist and no action is taken, the burden is expected to rise, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. In many countries comprehensive policies, strategies and plans are not in place to address different aspects of these important issues.

Comprehensive policies linked to evidence-based feasible action plans are necessary to translate injury and violence prevention and disability management into reality. A wealth of WHO documents are available to Member States to provide the necessary guidance to develop policies and strategies based on local context and considerations.
