01.03.2016 - 31.12.2016

The Humanitarian Response Fund (HRF) managed by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) provides flexible funding for life-saving interventions in Ethiopia. Due to consecutive failure of rainfall amplified by the El Nino phenomenon, the continued influx of refugees as well as sporadic disease outbreaks, Ethiopia is currently facing a serious humanitarian crisis. Switzerland's contribution to the HRF allows for a rapide, flexible, coordinated and needs-based humanitarian response.

Migrare per il benessere sociale e lo sviluppo economico in Sri Lanka

I membri di una famiglia osservano di buon umore documenti di viaggio

01.03.2016 - 31.12.2020

Ogni anno sono parecchie le persone che lasciano lo Sri Lanka per lavorare alcuni anni all’estero, soprattutto negli Stati del Golfo. In questo modo promuovono lo sviluppo della propria patria, ma spesso sono maggiormente soggette a violazioni dei diritti umani fondamentali e in particolare dei diritti del lavoro. La DSC si impegna quindi a favore di condizioni quadro dignitose nell’ambito della migrazione del lavoro nella regione.

Emergency assistance to Conflict-affected population in Eastern Ukraine

25.02.2016 - 31.12.2016

In early 2014, a deep political crisis in Ukraine and the secretive Russian military interference resulted in a major armed conflict in the East of the country, which led to massive displacement of civilian population and heavy destruction of infrastructures and private properties. A ceasefire formally in place since 15 February 2015 has allowed the Swiss Humanitarian Aid (SHA) to conduct three large humanitarian transports (health, water) benefitting the population in the Oblast of Donetsk (on both sides of the contact line) and the large city of Dnipropetrovsk.

La DSC ha consegnato dodici nuove ambulanze alla Mezzaluna Rossa Siriana Araba (SARC). Alla cerimonia di consegna avvenuta a Damasco ha presenziato anche una delegazione svizzera. Il sistema sanitario siriano necessita urgentemente di questo genere di veicoli per la cronica mancanza di ambulanze a causa delle devastazioni della guerra, degli attacchi contro gli ospedali e dell’ingente numero di vittime.

15.02.2016 - 31.07.2018

The Swiss contribution to this project at the interface of science and policy aims to support the implementation of Agenda 2030 with a particular focus on Sustainable Development Goal 16 (SDG 16). Two of the most respected academic institutions – the Centre on international cooperation at New York University and the Small arms survey at the Graduate institute for international and development studies – will combine their respective expertise. They will build intellectual foundations, evidence and partnerships that will accelerate the delivery of SDG 16 as well as related Development goals.

OCHA: Inter Cluster and Field Coordination in Meta

15.02.2016 - 31.03.2017

The cluster approach ongoing in Colombia since 2006 requires important coordination services among a wider range of partners, supporting the HC to ensure a coherent response, and providing field-based cluster leads with the inter-agency tools. Inter cluster coordination represents the strategic axis to ensure an adequate level of interaction among clusters and local humanitarian/coordination teams. With 9 operating humanitarian local teams in the field, where OCHA acts as secretariat, field coordination is an essential function of OCHA to deliver standardised guidelines to HLT, ensure proper support to partners and guaranty an efficient coordination of the local humanitarian response.

Swiss Bluetec Bridge: Swiss start-ups benefit disadvantaged populations

11.02.2016 - 31.05.2025

In addition to the sustainable management of resources and good governance, water-related challenges open up a wide field for technological innovation, particularly in the application of nanotechnologies for water treatment, especially ones which are energy-efficient. The challenge for Swiss Bluetec Bridge is to put these cutting-edge 'Swiss' technologies at the service of the poor and ensure that they are sustainably managed. To do this the project must seek to bridge the gap between public support for start-ups and private investment.

A National Training System for Simulation in Anaesthesia & Intensive Care and other Specialities

08.02.2016 - 30.06.2019

Anaesthesia & Intensive Care in adult and paediatric care is characterized by a high complexity of manoeuvres and specific procedures, as well as very complex clinical scenarios. There is an obvious need for stronger skills- based training as required by the European training models. In order to develop and maintain high training standards, Romania has recently introduced simulation methodology into continuous medical education (CME) at University level. However, the training capacity in in Romania remains limited: from the leading five universities, only two (Cluj, Tg-Mures) have simulation centres which are to some degree functional.
