However, the DRC is a severely indebted country with limited income due to years of war and mismanagement. Consequently, the Democratic Republic of Congo lacks the financial resources to fund the health care system at adequate levels. Health Care System The Ministry of Health (MOH) is a public health system based on the historical Belgian colonial public health system. The MOH is a policy and oversight organization comprised of subordinate organizations: · Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM) · Institute of Biomedical Research (Institut National de Recherché Biomédicale, or INRB) · Kinshasa School of Public Health (KSPH) The KSPH trains physicians in public health and staffs the public health infrastructure composed of Health Zones. By 2001 the DRC reported there were three tertiary hospitals, eleven provincial hospitals, 306 general hospitals, and approximately 6,000 health centers across the country. Contrary to the common definition of tertiary hospital (a major hospital that provides a full complement of specialized services), a tertiary hospital in the DRC only provides rehabilitative care. While there are private hospitals and clinics in the DRC, they are reserved for individuals with the financial means to pay for services provided. The health system of the Democratic Republic of Congo is funded from three sources: the state budget (i.e., taxes), external contributions (private and charitable contributions), and fee for service payments.

Week Five Standard Guidance
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) gained independence
from Belgium in 1960. Within a few weeks of independence, the
country was plagued with personal and ethnic rivalries. After
many years of civil war and unrest, the DRC finally passed a
new constitution on February 18, 2006, and elected its own
government, which offered the first opportunity for a stable
democracy. The new government has established the following
goals to meet the needs of its citizens:
· Reduce child mortality
· Combat HIV/AIDS rate, malaria, and other infectious diseases
· Improve maternal health
· Reduce incidence of tuberculosis
The Democratic Republic of Congo has vast quantities of
natural resources and the potential to provide financial stability](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/requiredresourcerequiredtextlovett-scottm-221031063153-4b1333fa/85/Required-ResourceRequired-TextLovett-Scott-M-Prather-F-docx-1-320.jpg)

Health systems around the world - Memoona Arshad
More people have gained access to essential health services such as immunization, HIV antiretroviral care, family planning, and malaria-prevention bed nets in the last decade. This is promising news, but development has been uneven: there are significant differences in service availability not only between countries, but also within them. Half the world's population can't afford the care it needs to stay safe on any given day.
Essential Package of Health Services and Health Benefit Plans Mapping Brief
The Democratic Republic of Congo has multiple health benefit plans but detailed service lists are not publicly available. The government aims to provide universal health coverage through expanding community-based health insurance. Over 100 mutual health insurance schemes now exist with 500,000 members enrolled. Additionally, the national social security program and one large public insurer offer coverage, though few can afford the latter. The labor code also guarantees services to formal sector workers, but only large firms comply. To improve alignment between the essential health services package and benefit plans, the project analyzed the degree of overlap between these policies.
In March 1957 the Republic of Ghana was the first African country .docx
In March 1957 the Republic of Ghana was the first African country to achieve its independence from the United Kingdom. The first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, commissioned health care facilities to care for indigenous people of Ghana. The health system was fully funded by state revenue; however, the lack of accessible health facilities in rural areas led to poor health outcomes (increase in communicable and non-communicable diseases, high infant and child mortality rates, etc.). The health system eventually experienced a budget crisis and, consequently, moved towards a cash system in which the patient pays for care and medication.
Health Care System
There are four main categories of health delivery systems in Ghana: public, private for-profit, private not-for-profit, and traditional systems. There has been a mandate since 1995 to integrate traditional and mainstream medicine. The health care system in Ghana is divided into three administrative levels: national, regional, and district levels. Additionally, there are several funding sources for the health system in place, however, it is grossly inadequate for achieving the goal of providing access to even basic health care for citizens throughout the country.

This document compares the healthcare systems of China, Turkey, and Mozambique based on six foundational elements: service delivery, workforce, access to medication, financing, health information systems, and leadership/governance. Regarding service delivery, China is reforming its system which previously had long stays and excess capacity. Mozambique has low access, especially for facility-based care. Turkey has enhanced access through high-efficiency services. For financing, China relies heavily on out-of-pocket costs while Turkey and Mozambique receive international support to improve coverage.

Evolution of public health in brazil
This document provides an overview of the evolution of public health in Brazil. It discusses how Brazil transitioned from a centralized social security model in the early 20th century that covered only 30% of the population, to establishing a unified public health system (SUS) in 1988 that provides universal coverage. The SUS is a decentralized system that involves community participation and focuses on primary care. It has helped reduce mortality rates and improve access to health services. However, challenges remain around equity, quality, and non-communicable diseases.
tunisian health care
The document summarizes Tunisia's healthcare system. Tunisia ranks 3rd in Africa for healthcare systems. The system provides universal coverage through public and private insurance plans. Healthcare is delivered through both public and private hospitals, though the public sector lacks modern technology and specialists. The healthcare system is managed by the National Health Insurance Fund and faces challenges of rising costs, geographic access issues, and implementing reforms in an unstable economic environment.

HEALTH STATUS OF PORTUGAL
Name of the country: Portugal
Type of government: Parliamentary democracy
Type of healthcare system: National Health System administered by the Ministry of Health,
blended with some employment-based health coverage
Population: 10,676,910 (2008 estimate)
Per capita gross domestic product (GDP): $21,800 (2007 estimate)
Principal ethnic groups: Mediterranean, Black African and European
Access to Healthcare: Because the system is administered by the national government, all
citizens have access to healthcare. The constitution stipulates that healthcare is to be provided
to all citizens. There is a Patient Charter that provides certain rights to everyone – the right to
be informed of one’s health status and to receive a second opinion; the right to refuse any
procedure; the right to privacy of one’s personal health records; the patient’s responsibility for
his/her health status, and to be forthcoming regarding health history. The national health
system provides direct acute hospital care, general practice, and mother and child care services.
Primary Care Centers represent a primary vehicle for dispensing health services. Patients must
register with a general practitioner (GP) within their defined geographic area.
Quality of Care: As of 2005, data indicate that Portugal has a higher life expectancy at birth
(78.2 years) than the United States (77.8 in 2004), but lower than France and the United
Kingdom (England). According to a recent study compared Portugal to other OECD countries in
the area of ‘amenable mortality’. Amenable Mortality is death that can be averted through the
presence and intervention of effective healthcare. Infant mortality has improved over the past
two decades, resulting in overall improving health status. There has also been improvement in
both the number of people on health care waiting lists, as well as in the length of time they
must wait before receiving health services.
Cost of Care: The national health system is financed out of general tax revenues, accounting for
approximately 60% of total tax revenue. The national health system also receives revenue from
hospital charges associated with private room charges, private insurance, fines, donations,
equipment and space rentals, etc. Out-of-pocket health costs are particularly high (23 % i ...

WHO CBR Matrix Health Component
The document provides guidelines for community-based rehabilitation (CBR) programs regarding health. It discusses how CBR aims to help people with disabilities achieve their highest attainable standard of health by working in areas like health promotion, prevention, medical care, rehabilitation, and assistive devices. CBR also facilitates inclusive healthcare by advocating that health services accommodate disabilities and be community-based and participatory. The ultimate goal is for people with disabilities to have improved health knowledge and access to affordable services close to home, and to participate actively in family and community life.
Final Paper
Morocco has a diverse population of over 33 million people, with Arabic and Islam being the dominant language and religion. The healthcare system faces several challenges, including limited access to care in rural areas which has led to the spread of communicable diseases. Key stakeholders are working to implement reforms like a National Public Health Institute to improve disease surveillance and response. Major public health issues include overpopulation straining resources, with many rural residents living far from clinics and relying on home births. Solutions being tried include expanding health insurance coverage and programs bringing free surgery to children with treatable conditions.

The Turkish Ministry of Health has led Turkey's healthcare system since 1920 according to a statutory decree introduced in 1983. The decree outlines the ministry's main objectives of maintaining public health, preventing health threats, and establishing the ministry's duties. The healthcare system is provided through various public and private organizations, with primary care delivered through health centers, family physicians, and other facilities. Turkey's health status and access to care have improved in recent years due to initiatives like the Health Transformation Program and increased coverage of services like immunizations and facility visits.

This document is a capstone project report for a Master's degree in public policy from the University of Utah. It assesses the impact of integrating HIV/AIDS services into primary health care in Mozambique. The report finds that integration has substantially contributed to reducing Mozambique's HIV prevalence rate by 74% based on statistical analysis. However, the reduction is still occurring at a high and slow pace. The study also indicates that insufficient health workers still threaten adequate delivery of HIV/AIDS services despite integration. It concludes that more health facilities and workers are needed to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of integration in lowering HIV prevalence.

- The health system is governed by laws and policies focused on primary health care and maternal/child health. It aims to expand coverage of basic health services through public facilities and community outreach programs.
- Service delivery is provided through a network of village health workers, health centers, district and provincial hospitals using integrated approaches for maternal, newborn and child health as a priority. Traditional medicine also remains

The document discusses alternative sustainable financing options for primary health care services in Kenya. It notes that while the Kenyan government is committed to providing quality primary health care, budgetary allocations to health care have declined and out-of-pocket spending is high. User fees intended to increase cost recovery have negatively impacted access to care. The study examines alternative financing mechanisms that could help mitigate these trends, such as pooling funds to protect the poor from catastrophic costs, establishing taxes specifically for health care, and issuing bonds for health infrastructure. However, identifying the poor and providing safety nets like waivers will be important for the success of any new mechanisms.

Code of Ethics: This is a synopsis of some of the most important ethical
considerations you need to be aware of as a professional in the real estate
industry.
Terminology:
Agency: The fiduciary relationship created between a principal and an agent whereby the agent
can act on behalf of the principle for certain transactions. Agency is usually created when the
principal signs a listing agreement to list their property for sale or a management contract to rent
a property for instance.
Agent: The broker or sales associate acting on behalf of the principal (see Agency)
Client: The person with whom the broker or sales associate has a legal contract to represent.
Customer: Is not contractually bound to the industry professional
Principal: Person who hires an agent to act on his or behalf.
Code of Ethics:
#1: The agent has a responsibility to promote the interests of their client(s) and treat all involved
in any real estate transaction in an honest and fair manner. They must disclose if they are a
dual agent (representing both buyer and seller in a transaction) or a designated agent
(represent either the buyer or seller depending on state law), or they are a limited representative
(will provide only certain duties in the transaction per state law).
#2: Agents must openly acknowledge to clients any personal interest they might have in any
transaction prior to showing a property; they must acknowledge any personal relationships
involved. Ex: Agent says, “I want to disclose to you before we look at it, that this property
belongs to is my brother and my sister in-law is his agent.”
#3: The Agent will not allow anyone that is not pre-authorized by the owner, to access the
property of the client.
#4: Never overstate benefits or attributes of a property or opportun.

Kingdom (England). According to a recent study compared Portugal to other OECD countries in
the area of ‘amenable mortality’. Amenable Mortality is death that can be averted through the
presence and intervention of effective healthcare. Infant mortality has improved over the past
two decades, resulting in overall improving health status. There has also been improvement in
both the number of people on health care waiting lists, as well as in the length of time they
must wait before receiving health services.
Cost of Care: The national health system is financed out of general tax revenues, accounting for
approximately 60% of total tax revenue. The national health system also receives revenue from
hospital charges associated with private room charges, private insurance, fines, donations,
equipment and space rentals, etc. Out-of-pocket health costs are particularly high (23 % i ...

Universal health care
Universal health coverage as a concept was born in 1883 when Germany introduced health coverage for achieving health status of its young population.India, is still attempting to find a way for providing appropriate, affordable and accessible health care to its population.
WHO CBR Matrix Health Component
The document provides guidelines for community-based rehabilitation (CBR) programs regarding health. It discusses how CBR aims to help people with disabilities achieve their highest attainable standard of health by working in areas like health promotion, prevention, medical care, rehabilitation, and assistive devices. CBR also facilitates inclusive healthcare by advocating that health services accommodate disabilities and be community-based and participatory. The ultimate goal is for people with disabilities to have improved health knowledge and access to affordable services close to home, and to participate actively in family and community life.
Final Paper
Morocco has a diverse population of over 33 million people, with Arabic and Islam being the dominant language and religion. The healthcare system faces several challenges, including limited access to care in rural areas which has led to the spread of communicable diseases. Key stakeholders are working to implement reforms like a National Public Health Institute to improve disease surveillance and response. Major public health issues include overpopulation straining resources, with many rural residents living far from clinics and relying on home births. Solutions being tried include expanding health insurance coverage and programs bringing free surgery to children with treatable conditions.
Presentation belgium
The Turkish Ministry of Health has led Turkey's healthcare system since 1920 according to a statutory decree introduced in 1983. The decree outlines the ministry's main objectives of maintaining public health, preventing health threats, and establishing the ministry's duties. The healthcare system is provided through various public and private organizations, with primary care delivered through health centers, family physicians, and other facilities. Turkey's health status and access to care have improved in recent years due to initiatives like the Health Transformation Program and increased coverage of services like immunizations and facility visits.

This document is a capstone project report for a Master's degree in public policy from the University of Utah. It assesses the impact of integrating HIV/AIDS services into primary health care in Mozambique. The report finds that integration has substantially contributed to reducing Mozambique's HIV prevalence rate by 74% based on statistical analysis. However, the reduction is still occurring at a high and slow pace. The study also indicates that insufficient health workers still threaten adequate delivery of HIV/AIDS services despite integration. It concludes that more health facilities and workers are needed to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of integration in lowering HIV prevalence.

The document provides demographic and health information about Lao PDR, including:
- Lao PDR has a population of 6.4 million people, with high rates of rural residence and poverty.
- Health indicators remain poor compared to other Southeast Asian countries, with communicable diseases and malnutrition as leading causes of death.
- The health system is governed by laws and policies focused on primary health care and maternal/child health. It aims to expand coverage of basic health services through public facilities and community outreach programs.
- Service delivery is provided through a network of village health workers, health centers, district and provincial hospitals using integrated approaches for maternal, newborn and child health as a priority. Traditional medicine also remains

The document discusses alternative sustainable financing options for primary health care services in Kenya. It notes that while the Kenyan government is committed to providing quality primary health care, budgetary allocations to health care have declined and out-of-pocket spending is high. User fees intended to increase cost recovery have negatively impacted access to care. The study examines alternative financing mechanisms that could help mitigate these trends, such as pooling funds to protect the poor from catastrophic costs, establishing taxes specifically for health care, and issuing bonds for health infrastructure. However, identifying the poor and providing safety nets like waivers will be important for the success of any new mechanisms.

Cuba Health Care System, by Imrana Mumtaz.pptx
Cuba has a universal healthcare system that is funded by the government. It has a high number of medical facilities and healthcare workers per capita. All citizens and residents have access to insurance that covers medical benefits. The government allocates a large portion of its budget to healthcare and operates public health programs through institutions like the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Havana. Cuba's existing socialized healthcare system and experience responding to emergencies helped it effectively implement strategies to control COVID-19.

Code of Ethics: This is a synopsis of some of the most important ethical
considerations you need to be aware of as a professional in the real estate
industry.
Terminology:
Agency: The fiduciary relationship created between a principal and an agent whereby the agent
can act on behalf of the principle for certain transactions. Agency is usually created when the
principal signs a listing agreement to list their property for sale or a management contract to rent
a property for instance.
Agent: The broker or sales associate acting on behalf of the principal (see Agency)
Client: The person with whom the broker or sales associate has a legal contract to represent.
Customer: Is not contractually bound to the industry professional
Principal: Person who hires an agent to act on his or behalf.
Code of Ethics:
#1: The agent has a responsibility to promote the interests of their client(s) and treat all involved
in any real estate transaction in an honest and fair manner. They must disclose if they are a
dual agent (representing both buyer and seller in a transaction) or a designated agent
(represent either the buyer or seller depending on state law), or they are a limited representative
(will provide only certain duties in the transaction per state law).
#2: Agents must openly acknowledge to clients any personal interest they might have in any
transaction prior to showing a property; they must acknowledge any personal relationships
involved. Ex: Agent says, “I want to disclose to you before we look at it, that this property
belongs to is my brother and my sister in-law is his agent.”
#3: The Agent will not allow anyone that is not pre-authorized by the owner, to access the
property of the client.
#4: Never overstate benefits or attributes of a property or opportun.

ome creators announce their inventions with grand
éclat. God proclaimed, “Fiat lux,” and then flooded
his new universe with brightness. Others bring forth
great discoveries in a modest guise, as did Charles
Darwin in defining his new mechanism of evolu-
tionary causality in 1859: “I have called this principle, by which
each slight variation, if useful, is preserved, by the term Natur-
al Selection.”
Natural selection is an immensely powerful yet beautifully
simple theory that has held up remarkably well, under intense
and unrelenting scrutiny and testing, for 135 years. In essence,
natural selection locates the mechanism of evolutionary change
in a “struggle” among organisms for reproductive success, lead-
ing to improved fit of populations to changing environments.
(Struggle is often a metaphorical description and need not be
viewed as overt combat, guns blazing. Tactics for reproductive
success include a variety of nonmartial activities such as earlier
and more frequent mating or better cooperation with partners
in raising offspring.) Natural selection is therefore a principle of
local adaptation, not of general advance or progress.
Yet powerful though the principle may be, natural selection
is not the only cause of evolutionary change (and may, in many
cases, be overshadowed by other forces). This point needs em-
phasis because the standard misapplication of evolutionary the-
ory assumes that biological explanation may be equated with
devising accounts, often speculative and conjectural in practice,
about the adaptive value of any given feature in its original en-
vironment (human aggression as good for hunting, music and
religion as good for tribal cohesion, for example). Darwin him-
self strongly emphasized the multifactorial nature of evolu-
tionary change and warned against too exclusive a reliance on
natural selection, by placing the following statement in a max-
imally conspicuous place at the very end of his introduction: “I
am convinced that Natural Selection has been the most impor-
tant, but not the exclusive, means of modification.”
Reality versus Conceit
N A T U R A L S E L E C T I O N is not fully sufficient to explain evo-
lutionary change for two major reasons. First, many other caus-
es are powerful, particularly at levels of biological organization
both above and below the traditional Darwinian focus on or-
ganisms and their struggles for reproductive success. At the low-
est level of substitution in individual base pairs of DNA, change
is often effectively neutral and therefore random. At higher lev-
els, involving entire species or faunas, punctuated equilibrium
can produce evolutionary trends by selection of species based
on their rates of origin and extirpation, whereas mass extinc-
tions wipe out substantial parts of biotas for reasons unrelat-
ed to adaptive struggles of constituent species in “normal”

Presentation Style
Your research project needs to be clearly presented:
·
The front page should include your
name, project title (around 15 words), your supervisor’s name, the date it
was completed;
·
Work should be presented single
sided, in Arial, minimum font size 11 and be one and a half spaced;
·
A contents page detailing the section
and any tables/charts should be included;
·
Any quotes of less than 12 words
should be identified by quotation marks and kept as part of the paragraph text;
·
Quotes of 12 words and above should
be separated out from the text, indented on the left and right and be displayed
in italics (no quotation marks required);
·
All tables and charts should be
numbered appropriately and have a title;
·
Each section of your project should
be started on a new page;
·
All pages should be numbered;
·
Each section should be numbered (e.g.
1. Introduction) and any charts/graphs within the section should be numbered
accordingly. For example if you are writing about something in section 4.1 (the
first sub-section) then the first chart or graph would be 4.11. So charts and
graphs (if included) are numbered according to the section/sub-section.
Word limit
The project should be written up in
no more than 12,000
words
. This includes everything except the reference list, any appendices
and acknowledgements.

Alistair Cockburn
• What’s Alistair’s take on Iterative vs. Incremental?
Incremental vs. Iterative
• in incremental development, you do each of those
activities multiple times … that is, you go around the
requirements – design – programming – testing –
integration – delivery cycle multiple times. You
“iterate” through that cycle multiple times. (“iterate” –
get it? sigh…)
• in iterative development, you also do each of those
activities multiple times … you go around the
requirements – design – programming – testing –
integration – delivery cycle multiple times. You
“iterate” through that cycle multiple times. By Gummy!
Both of those are “iterative” development! WOW!

Incremental vs. Iterative (cont’d)
• Of course, the $200,000 question is,
do you repeat the cycle “on the same
part of the system you just got done
with” or “on a new part of the
system”? How you answer that
question yields very different results
on what happens next on your
project.

Rising Up from a Sea of Discontent
The 1970 Koza Uprising in U.S.-Occupied Okinawa
Wesley Iwao Ueunten
Burn, burn, let the whole world burn!
—Overheard by journalists during the Koza Uprising
(Takamine, Shirarezaru Okinawa no beihei)
I came across an account of a riot that occurred in Okinawa on December
20, 1970, that made its way to the front page of many major American
newspapers but then suddenly disappeared from news coverage the next
day. In the aft ermath of the “Koza Riot,” or what I choose to call the “Koza
Uprising” because it was not merely a chaotic and mindless fracas (a point
about which I will address later; see Figure 5.1), over seventy cars owned
by Americans and a few buildings on the huge Kadena Air Force Base, for
which the town of Koza served as an entertainment district, were burned
by Okinawans. No such violent protest by Okinawans toward U.S. military
occupation can be remembered before or since then.
Th is chapter seeks to examine critically the historical and social context
of the Koza Uprising; in doing so, it aims to reveal the nature of a tripartite
relationship between Okinawa, the United States, and Japan. Th at is, the
Koza Uprising took place against the backdrop of U.S. imperialism in Asia
and its colonial rule over Okinawa. Japan had previously been the colo-
nial ruler of Okinawa aft er forcibly annexing the former Ryûkyûan King-
dom in 1879. Consequently, the U.S. takeover of Okinawa in 1945 was the
transfer of control from one colonial ruler to another. However, Japan has
benefi ted from U.S. colonial rule over Okinawa, as its postwar “economic
miracle” was made possible by the U.S. military umbrella concentrated in
Okinawa. In the postwar period, then, Japan became a “junior partner” to

the United States’ hegemonic infl uence in Asia; Japan’s defeat meant that
it was forced to acquiesce to a subordinate status under the United States,
but it did not mean giving up dominant status over other Asian countries.
Okinawa became the “keystone” in this unholy alliance by allowing
Japan to contain the most blatant aspects of U.S. domination in a place far
enough away to remain out of the consciousness of the general American
and Japanese populations but near enough to off er the benefi ts of U.S. mil-
itary presence. Even now, about 20 percent of Okinawa, the main island in
the Ryûkyû Archipelago, is occupied by U.S. military bases. About 75 per-
cent of all U.S. military facilities in Japan are located in Okinawa, despite

Feminist Figures or Damsels in Distress?
The Media’s Gendered Misrepresentation
of Disney Princesses
Isabelle Gill | University of Central Florida
A gender bias seems to exist when discussing Disney princesses in entertainment media that could have
significant consequences for girls who admire these heroines. Prior research and my own extensions have
shown that modern princesses display almost equal amounts of masculine and feminine qualities; how-
ever, my research on film reviews shows an inaccurate representation of these qualities. These media
perpetuate sexist ideals for women in society by including traditionally feminine vocabulary, degrading
physical descriptions, and inaccuracies about the films, as well as syntax and critiques that trivialize the
heroines’ accomplishments and suggest the characters are not empowered enough. The reviews also
encourage unhealthy competition between the princesses and devote significantly more words to these
negative trends than to positive discussions. These patterns result in the depiction of the princesses as
more stereotypically feminine and weak than is indicated by the films themselves, which hinders the cre-
ation of role models for girls.
Despite significant strides women have made
toward combatting sexism in American
society, news and entertainment media rep-
resentations of women continue to be one of
the many obstacles left before reaching
equality. Numerous studies have identified
gender bias in the ways media represent
women (Fink and Kensicki; Niven and
Zilber; Shacar; Wood). Media tend to favor
representations of women who are “tradi-
tionally feminine” as well as not “too able,
too powerful, or too confident,” over more
complex representations (Wood 33). For
example, research by Janet Fink and Linda
Jean Kensicki shows that when media aimed
at both men and women discuss female ath-
letes, their focus is on sex appeal, fashion,
and family rather than athletic accomplish-
ment. Female scientists as well as female
members of Congress also fall victim to this
trend. Interviews with male scientists often
portray them as primarily professionals
while interviews with female scientists tend
to reference their professionalism while high-
lighting domesticity and family life (Shacar).
Similarly, media descriptions of the female
members of Congress focus on domestic
issues even though the congresswomen por-
tray themselves as having diverse interests
(Niven and Zilber). In sum, biased, gendered
representations of women are common in
various forms of media.
Media misrepresentation of women in
these ways can lead to significant social
consequences, such as reinforcing anti-
quated gender roles and diminishing the
perception of women’s impact on society
(England, Descartes, and Collier-Meek;
Fink and Kensicki; Graves; Niven and
Zilber; Shacar; Wood). Since media are

Burlington, MA: Jones & Bartlett Learning. Week Five Standard Guidance The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) gained independence from Belgium in 1960. Within a few weeks of independence, the country was plagued with personal and ethnic rivalries. After many years of civil war and unrest, the DRC finally passed a new constitution on February 18, 2006, and elected its own government, which offered the first opportunity for a stable democracy. The new government has established the following goals to meet the needs of its citizens: · Reduce child mortality · Combat HIV/AIDS rate, malaria, and other infectious diseases · Improve maternal health · Reduce incidence of tuberculosis The Democratic Republic of Congo has vast quantities of natural resources and the potential to provide financial stability
- 2. through mining minerals (diamonds, copper, cobalt, and gold). However, the DRC is a severely indebted country with limited income due to years of war and mismanagement. Consequently, the Democratic Republic of Congo lacks the financial resources to fund the health care system at adequate levels. Health Care System The Ministry of Health (MOH) is a public health system based on the historical Belgian colonial public health system. The MOH is a policy and oversight organization comprised of subordinate organizations: · Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM) · Institute of Biomedical Research (Institut National de Recherché Biomédicale, or INRB) · Kinshasa School of Public Health (KSPH) The KSPH trains physicians in public health and staffs the public health infrastructure composed of Health Zones. By 2001 the DRC reported there were three tertiary hospitals, eleven provincial hospitals, 306 general hospitals, and approximately 6,000 health centers across the country. Contrary to the common definition of tertiary hospital (a major hospital that provides a full complement of specialized services), a tertiary hospital in the DRC only provides rehabilitative care. While there are private hospitals and clinics in the DRC, they are reserved for individuals with the financial means to pay for services provided. The health system of the Democratic Republic of Congo is funded from three sources: the state budget (i.e., taxes), external contributions (private and charitable contributions), and fee for service payments. According to a report by Doctors without Borders (2005), hospitalized patients often were responsible for their own medical supplies and prescription medication due to lack of supplies (p. 11). Approximately 2/3 of Congolese citizens are unable to afford medical care. The contributions of non-governmental organizations have been essential in the operation of the health system.
- 3. Access to health – Strengthening the Health System Together This documentary on access to health care in the Democratic Republic of Congo features Malteser International, a non- governmental organization. Among other things, Malteser provides access to health care in poverty-stricken rural regions of DRC. This worldwide relief agency is an example of one of the many external, non-governmental organizations that are crucial to the current DRC health care system. The video (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. provides a context described Epidemiology The Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) was one of the first African countries to recognize HIV, registering cases of HIV among hospital patients as early as 1983. The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS estimated that 1.3 million Congolese (adult and children) were living with HIV/AIDS (Doctors without Borders, 2005). Malaria remains the primary cause of death with childhood diseases (measles, neonatal tetanus, and poliomyelitis) steadily rising. References Ichchannel. (2010, January 29).
