  5. IPPNW Mission • “IPPNW is a non-partisan, global federation of national medical organizations in 58 countries dedicated to research, education, and advocacy relevant to the prevention of nuclear war. To this end, IPPNW seeks to prevent all wars, to promote non-violent conflict resolution, and to minimize the effects of war and preparations for war on health, development, and the environment.”

  6. Deterrence TIME September 23,2002 • Reasons to Be Fearful • Charles Krauthammer's argument for invading Iraq in "The Terrible Logic of Nukes" [Essay, Sept. 2] is just that: terrible logic. Iraq wants nuclear weapons to balance Israel's, which built them to balance Arab conventional superiority. Pakistan wanted to balance India, which had to balance China, which had to balance Russia, which had to balance the U.S. and its allies, which had to balance Russia's presumed European-theater superiority. Throughout this balancing act, the world has been no more than 30 minutes away from Armageddon. The only logical way to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of madmen is to renounce them ourselves. NEIL ARYA, M.D.International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War Waterloo, Ont.

  7. EL SALVADOR SMALL ARMS  PEACE THROUGH HEALTH TRAINING

  8. DECLARATION OF ALMA-ATA • IThe Conference strongly reaffirms that health, which is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, is a fundamental human right and that the attainment of the highest possible level of health is a most important world-wide social goal whose realization requires the action of many other social and economic sectors in addition to the health sector. • IIThe existing gross inequality in the health status of the people particularly between developed and developing countries as well as within countries is politically, socially and economically unacceptable and is, therefore, of common concern to all countries. • International Conference on Primary Health Care, Alma-Ata, USSR, 6-12 September 1978

  9. Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion (1986) Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve, their health. To reach a state of complete physical mental and social wellbeing, an individual or group must be able to identify and to realize aspirations, to satisfy needs, and to change or cope with the environment. Health is, therefore, seen as a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living.Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities. Therefore, health promotion is not just the responsibility of the health sector, but goes beyond healthy lifestyles to wellbeing. http://www.who.dk/AboutWHO/Policy/20010827_2

OTTAWA CHARTER • Prerequisites for Health • The fundamental conditions and resources for health are: • a peace, • b shelter, • c education, • d food, • e income, • f a stable eco-system, • g sustainable resources, • h social justice, and equity. • CHARTER ADOPTED AT AN INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON HEALTH PROMOTION* • The move towards a new public health, November 17-21, 1986 Ottawa, Ontario, Canada • * Co-sponsored by the Canadian Public Health Association,Health and Welfare • Canada, and the World Health Organization

CENTRAL AMERICA • El Salvador (Cruz, Beltran) • murder rate similar to Colombia about 90/100,000 • over 75% of these are caused by firearms • over 60% of violent deaths in total are caused by firearms or explosives. • 7% of 13-19 year old admitted carrying a gun to school • vast majority of weapons in the country remain pistols and revolvers.

  13. PREVENTABLE DEATHS? • WHO estimates homicide rates • Japan at 0.6 per 100,000 • United States 7 per 100,000 • Brazil 25 per 100,000

  14. PUBLIC HEALTH PRIORITY? • estimated 200,000 people non-conflict situations Cukier • 500,000 deaths=one death for every minute tuberculosis (2.9 million), HIV/AIDS (2.3 million) and malaria (1.5-2.7 million). youngest and healthiest of society • Represent c. one quarter of the 2.3 million deaths due to violence[i],[ii], 42% are suicides, 38% are homicides and 26% are war-related[iii],[iv] • i]Krug, E.E., ed.

PCIA “A means of anticipating and evaluating the impacts of proposed and completed development interventions on the structures and processes that strengthen the prospects for peaceful coexistence and decrease the likelihood of the outbreak, recurrence or continuation of violent conflict; and the structures and processes that increase the likelihood that conflict be dealt with through violent means.”
