Yet evidence from both high- and low-income countries shows that services for adolescents are highly fragmented, poorly coordinated and uneven in quality. Pockets of excellent practice exist, but, overall, services need significant improvement and should be brought into conformity with existing guidelines.</p> <p>The WHO/UNAIDS global standards for quality health-care services for adolescents aim to assist policy-makers and health service planners to improve the quality of health-care services, so that adolescents find it easier to obtain the health services that they need to promote, protect, and improve their health and well-being, according to their needs. </p> <p>This publication presents global standards for quality health-care services for adolescents, as well as an implementation guide and monitoring tools.</p> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-mt-showcase-tags field--type-entity-reference

<p>Adolescence is a critical stage in life for physical, cognitive and emotional development, shaping future health and well-being. Comprehensive measurement of adolescent health is essential to prioritize health issues, guide interventions and track progress. However, global, regional and national adolescent health measurement has historically been inconsistent and incomplete.</p> <p>The Global Action for Measurement of Adolescent health (GAMA) Advisory Group has been established by the World Health Organization (WHO) in collaboration with United Nations partners to support efforts to focus adolescent health measurement on the most important issues and to improve alignment across different measurement initiatives.</p> <p>The indicators are intended to guide policy and programming for adolescents, and to assist in identifying topics in which more detailed health assessments and additional programming are needed. The last chapter in this guidance document describes how this can be done, based on the approach suggested in the Accelerated Action for the Health of Adolescents (AA-HA!) guidance.</p> <p>This document presents a list of 47 indicators recommended by GAMA for measurement of adolescent health, which are applicable to all adolescent population subgroups and span Well-being Outcomes. </p> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-mt-showcase-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/77" hreflang="en">Paediatric and Adolescent Treatment</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/23" hreflang="en">Adolescent Prevention</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-organization-tag field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Organization Tag</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/20" hreflang="en">WHO</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-service field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Region Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/74" hreflang="en">Global</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-population-tag field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Population Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/103" hreflang="en">Adolescents</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-document- field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Document Type Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/835" hreflang="en">Guidance</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-attach-file field--type-file field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Download file(s)</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <span class="file file--mime-application-pdf file--application-pdf"> <a href="/sites/default/files/2024-06/9789240092198-eng.pdf" type="application/pdf" title="9789240092198-eng.pdf">The adolescent health indicators recommended by the GAMA</a></span> </div> </div> </div> Sun, 09 Jun 2024 13:40:41 +0000 rlekirkegaard 1730 at https://www.childrenandaids.org Global Accelerated Action for the Health of Adolescents (AA-HA!) - Second edition https://www.childrenandaids.org/node/1715 <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Global Accelerated Action for the Health of Adolescents (AA-HA!) - Second edition</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/369" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">rlekirkegaard</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Mon, 02/26/2024 - 22:26</span> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><p>This second edition of AA-HA! guidance to support country implementation builds on the first edition published in 2017.

This Toolkit aims to secure ownership and commitment from Heads of State and Ministers in the 12 Global Alliance countries while advocating for investments to address inequalities affecting children, adolescents, and marginalized pregnant and breastfeeding women. It seeks to empower networks of women and children living with and affected by HIV, building their leadership capacity, strengthening advocacy and accountability mechanisms, and enabling them to influence policies and improve services. Furthermore, it emphasizes increasing the visibility and impact of the Global Alliance through strategic use of online and social platforms, fostering collaboration with communities, influencers, champions, senior UN leaders, and stakeholders.

In 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) granted tentative approval of paediatric DTG 10 mg scored, dispersible tablets (pDTG) for CLHIV weighing a minimum of 3 kg and at least four weeks of age. In early 2021, national HIV programmes in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) began to transition CLHIV from treatment regimens containing non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) and lopinavir/ritonavir to pDTG. As of the last quarter of 2022, at least 73 countries have already placed or received orders for pDTG1 and an estimated 130,000 children have transitioned to pDTG. pDTG currently is administered along with optimised backbone antiretrovirals (ARVs) such as abacavir/lamivudine 120/60 mg scored dispersible tablets (pABC/3TC) per the WHO’s 2021 Consolidated HIV Guidelines.</p> <p>This brief aims to inform the transition from pDTG + pABC/3TC to the new fixed-dose combination (FDC) dispersible tablet of paediatric ABC/3TC/DTG 60/30/5 mg (pALD).</p> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-mt-showcase-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/77" hreflang="en">Paediatric and Adolescent Treatment</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-organization-tag field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Organization Tag</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/20" hreflang="en">WHO</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-service field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Region Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/74" hreflang="en">Global</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-population-tag field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Population Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/102" hreflang="en">Children</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/101" hreflang="en">Infants</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-topic field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Topic Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/86" hreflang="en">ART and Treatment</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/87" hreflang="en">Paediatric ARVs and formulations</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-document- field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Document Type Tags</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/137" hreflang="en">Brief</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-year-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--entity-reference-target-type-taxonomy-term clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Year Tags</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/885" hreflang="en">2023</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-attach-file field--type-file field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Download file(s)</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <span class="file file--mime-application-pdf file--application-pdf"> <a href="/sites/default/files/2023-12/2023paldplanning_english-final.pdf" type="application/pdf" title="2023paldplanning_english-final.pdf">pALD introduction and rollout planning</a></span> </div> </div> </div> Thu, 21 Dec 2023 17:30:23 +0000 rlekirkegaard 1687 at https://www.childrenandaids.org Adolescent-friendly health services for adolescents living with HIV: From theory to practice https://www.childrenandaids.org/node/1685 <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Adolescent-friendly health services for adolescents living with HIV: From theory to practice</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/416" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">bbenghomari</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Fri, 12/15/2023 -
