Déclaration sur l’utilisation du DDT dans la lutte contre le Paludisme en Afrique
La journée mondiale de lutte contre le paludisme, le 25 Avril 2016 est l’occasion encore une fois pour Pesticide Action Network (PAN) Africa de renouveler son soutien à la Convention de Stockholm et réaffirmer sa position contre l’utilisation du DDT dans la lutte contre le paludisme.
In the run-up to the 7th Conference of the Parties (COP7), IPEN has released its "Quick Views of Stockholm Convention COP7." This document is a summary statement of IPEN views on issues that COP7 will be called upon to address, including POPs wastes, tecnical assistance and regional centres, rules of procedure, compliance, listing of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in Annex A, listing of hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD) in Annex A and C, exemptions and acceptable purposes, evaluation of PFOS, and more.
IPENers from Uganda Network on Toxic Free Malaria Control (UNETMAC) and Pesticide Action Network (PAN) North America are quoted in this recent article.
