Dimension Index

The proportion of stunting above 20 percent indicates that there are still public health problems in Indonesia. The impact of stunting not only affects the stature but also affects the economic productivity of a country. The purpose of this study was to develop index models that are responsive stunting in children under-5 years in Indonesia. Development of the index model used mathematical formulations using the SDGs indicator and other relevant indicators. Aggregate data from 16-time series were selected from 34 provinces in Indonesia in the span of 4 years (2015 - 2018). Furthermore, the method of developing a stunting index in this study was carried out through the stages of standardization, weighting, aggregation and validation. The results showed that the stunting index model is an evaluation measure that is responsive to stunting interventions in infants (0-56 months) in Indonesia. The national stunting index from 2015 to 2018 increased although it was still in the medium category with index values of 69.77, 70.29, 70.30 and 72.74, respectively. This study recommended an increase in efforts to achieve dimension index values in the development pillars of environmental and economical, especially in the eastern regions of Indonesia and the divided provinces.ABSTRAK Proporsi stunting lebih dari 20 persen menunjukkan bahwa masih terdapat masalah kesehatan masyarakat di Indonesia. Dampak stunting tidak hanya mempengaruhi perawakan tetapi juga mempengaruhi produktifitas ekonomi suatu negara. Sebuah model sederhana dan responsif dalam bentuk indeks stunting dapat menjadi bagian dari pilar rencana aksi intervensi stunting tersebut di atas. Model indeks stunting pun diharapkan dapat membantu pengambil keputusan (decision maker) menyusun formulasi, implementasi dan evaluasi kebijakan dalam penanggulangan stunting untuk masa yang akan datang. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengembangkan model indeks stunting responsif pada anak balita di Indonesia. Pengembangan model indeks menggunakan formulasi matematis dengan menggunakan indikator Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) dan indikator terkait lainnya. Data agregat dari 16 time series dipilih dari 34 provinsi di Indonesia dalam kurun waktu 4 tahun (2015 - 2018). Selanjutnya metode pengembangan indeks stunting pada penelitian ini dilakukan melalui tahapan standardisasi, pembobotan, agregasi dan validasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model indeks stunting pada penilitian ini merupakan ukuran evaluasi yang tanggap terhadap intervensi stunting pada bayi (0-56 bulan) di Indonesia. Indeks stunting nasional dari tahun 2015 sampai 2018 mengalami peningkatan meskipun masih dalam kategori sedang dengan nilai indeks masing-masing 69,77, 70,29, 70,30 dan 72,74. Studi ini merekomendasikan peningkatan upaya pencapaian nilai indeks dimensi pada pilar pembangunan lingkungan dan ekonomi khususnya di wilayah timur Indonesia dan daerah provinsi pemekaran.Kata kunci: Indeks stunting, evaluasi kebijakan, anak balita

Abstract As Citizens of the World, in 2020 we have been challenged to frankly + swiftly evaluate public health crises, social injustice + their intrinsic link to our global economies. This starkly pivotal year marks a decade to the deadline to fulfill the United Nations' 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The 17 SDGs are oft-considered the world's best plan towards building a better world for people and our planet. Adopted by all UN Member States in 2015, the SDGs are an international call-to-action to promote prosperity while protecting the environment. In light of the UN's 17th goal of Partnership, we wanted to amplify the interconnections between the specialties of architecture + health. This particular goal seeks to strengthen the means of implementation + revitalize the global collaboration for sustainable development. As an Architect specializing in Healthcare at SOM's New York office, Founder of WALLEN + daub + the Head of Global Surgery at University of Cape Town, we are approaching sustained well-being from our respective professions. We each serve different geographic markets towards the best outcomes. We pondered the codependency of space + care in creating a healing experience for patients. Global surgery + international healthcare architecture are rooted in serving others. Therefore, we are continuously considering the role of the professional in creating spatial infrastructure as a component of service delivery for care by clinicians. Progress is evident, but slow. The last Annual SDSN Report found that the best performing city is only making 68% progress toward full achievement of all seventeen SDGs. Of all largely-populated US cities, two-thirds are less than halfway there. As we work globally towards more equitable, healthy + resilient communities (#11), we must further investigate the impact and implementation of the other goals, namely: health + well-being (#3), access to sanitation (#6), + industry, innovation + infrastructure (#9). Key messages UN SDGs + public health care (sustainable care + design). Patient Well-being: Collaboration through sustainable development goals, design + care.

Abstract Background The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development presents an unprecedented opportunity to apply an ecological perspective in public health. It’s success relays on the capacity to interpret and translate embodied principles into policies and actions. Regional policy document (PDs) guide the actions taken by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Member States. This study aims to explore the alignment between these tools and the health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the WHO European Region. Methods PDs were identified scanning the contents of the 2015-2018 Sessions of the Regional Committee for Europe - the WHO decision-making body. 17 PDs endorsed during this period were directly included. 39 Progress reports were scanned to find additional valid PDs. The Final list included 32 items. A content analysis of the PDs was used to establish alignment to 64 health-related SDGs targets. Results Preliminary results found that each PD aligned to multiple targets within and beyond SDG 3. 24 PDs addressed all targets of SDG 3. A gap within target 3.b was identified (development of medicines and vaccines). Three PDs dealt with health issues outside SDG 3: target 2.1 and 2.2 (end hunger and malnutrition), 15.8 (prevent and reduce the impact of invasive species), and 16.2 (end violence and abuse against children). Five crosscutting PDs aimed to reduce the impact of social, economic and environmental determinants of health on specific population groups, aligning to several targets at the time. Gaps in Target 8.7 (eradicate forced labor) and 14.2 (protect marine and coastal ecosystems) were found. Conclusions PDs have the potential of contributing to several targets simultaneously, linking health to diverse aspects of sustainable development. The SDGs open the possibility for multisectoral actions. PDs invite decision-makers to venture into unconventional policy fields to address public health concerns raised by climate change and sustainable development. Key messages Policy documents are a valuable instrument to advance the 2030 Agenda as they enjoy the commitment of Member States and guide the action taken by international and national decision makers. The ecological perspective in public health promised by the 2030 Agenda demands actions beyond SDG 3, to address the health dimension of all aspects of sustainable development.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted during the United Nations meeting in 2015 to succeed Millennium Development Goals. Among the health targets, SDG 3.2 is to end preventable deaths of newborns and children under 5 years of age by 2030. These 2 targets aim to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1000 live births and under-5 mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1000 live births. Ethiopia is demonstrating a great reduction in child mortality since 2000. In the 2019 child mortality estimation which is nearly 5 years after SDGs adoption, Ethiopia’s progress toward reducing the newborns and under-5 mortality lie at 27 and 50.7 per 1000 live births, respectively. The generous financial and technical support from the global partners have helped to achieve such a significant reduction. Nevertheless, the SDG targets for newborns and under-5 mortality reduction are neither attained yet nor met the national plan to achieve by the end of 2019/2020. The partnership dynamics during COVID-19 crisis and the pandemic itself may also be taken as an opportunity to draw lessons and spur efforts to achieve SDG targets. This urges the need to reaffirm a comprehensive partnership and realignment with other interconnected development goals. Therefore, collective efforts with strong partnerships are required to improve the determinants of child health and achieving SDG target reduction until 2030.

The Impact

This study analyses the impact of Spanish financial institutions’ risk profile on their contribution to the 2030 Agenda. Financial institutions play a significant role in ensuring financial inclusion and sustainable economic growth and usually incorporate environmental and social considerations into their risk management systems. The results show that financial institutions with less capital risk, with lower management efficiency and with higher market risk usually make higher contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), according to their sustainability reports. The novel aspect of the present study is that it identifies the risk profile of financial institutions that incorporate sustainability into their business operations and measure the impact generated in the environment and in society. The study findings have important implications for shareholders, investors and analysts, according to the view that sustainability reporting is a vehicle that financial institutions use to express their commitment to the 2030 Agenda and to higher quality corporate reporting.

Abstract The Global Burden of Disease is the most comprehensive effort to date to measure epidemiological levels and trends worldwide. It is the product of a global research collaborative and quantifies the impact of hundreds of diseases, injuries, and risk factors in countries around the world. The publication published in The Lancet on September 12, 2017, namely the study, “Measuring progress and projecting attainment on the basis of past trends of the health-related Sustainable Development Goals in 188 countries: an analysis from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016,” is the starting point to discuss the health-related SDG indicators as develop by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) and Global Burden of Disease collaborators. The projected increases in mortality are steep for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other chronic diseases. Non-communicable diseases are increasingly recognized as major causes of death and disability worldwide. The question is whether the targets in the SDGs are sufficiently addressing these increases. Or are demographic changes underlying the projected increases? Health related SDGs have been addressed in a tool made by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). Results on air pollution, smoking, unsafe water, sanitation and hygiene are presented by current and projected data in an interactive tool.

The Individual

Accounting for about 15% of the world’s population, persons with disabilities constitute a critical population. Despite a substantial knowledge base in disability and public health, persons with disabilities have been remarkably invisible within general global public health. Public health’s view of disability is shifting from regarding disability only as an outcome to prevent, to using disability as a demographic characteristic that identifies a population experiencing a range of inequities. Alternative models of disability reflect how disability has been viewed over time. These models vary in their underlying values and assumptions, whether the locus of disability is the individual or the environment or their interaction, who designates “disability,” and the focus of intervention outcomes. The United Nations flagship report on Disability and Sustainable Development Goals, 2018 documents that, as a group, the lives of persons with disabilities are marked by large disparities in Sustainable Development Goal indicators. These include increased likelihood of experiencing poverty, hunger, poor health, and unemployment, and greater likelihood of encountering barriers to education and literacy, clean water and sanitation, energy, and information technology. Overall, persons with disabilities experience greater inequalities, and this is particularly experienced by women and girls with disabilities. The COVID-19 pandemic and other disasters have highlighted the gaps in equality and consequent vulnerability of this population. Global disability data have improved dramatically during the decade from 2010 to 2020 with the advent of standardized disability question sets (Washington Group) and model surveys (Model Disability Survey). New studies from the Global South and North identify areas and strategies for interventions that can effectively advance the Sustainable Development Goals. This call-to-action outlines strategies for increasing visibility and improving wellbeing of persons with disabilities, particularly in the Global South. Increased visibility of the disability population within the global public health community can be achieved through active engagement of persons with disabilities. Improved collection of disability data and routine analysis by disability status can provide information vital to planning and policies. A twin-track approach can provide direction for interventions—inclusion in mainstream programs where possible, use of disability-specific and rehabilitation approaches where necessary. The article ends by outlining ways that multiple roles can increase the inclusion of persons with disabilities in global public health.
