WHICH 2 WHO PRIORITIES AM I?
WHO promotes breastfeeding as the best source of nourishment for babies and one of the most effective ways to ensure child health and survival, reducing the need to have antibiotics. Yet worldwide, only 38% of babies are breastfed as their sole source of nourishment for 6 months, as WHO recommends. Peru has been a pathfinder. The proportion of infants exclusively breastfed increased from one in five in 1992 to more than half in 2000 – thanks to a nationwide effort to implement an initiative sponsored by WHO and UNICEF

·Training people; women in particular to become technical specialists.
·Concrete around pumps to stop open defecation from animals and prevent the pumps form being damaged
·Sanitation – toilets, washing hands

•Develop policies to help countries take action to promote health and wellbeing
•Provide technical support and help build sustainable health systems
•Monitor health and wellbeing and assess health and wellbeing trends
Explain the impact of quality education on good health and wellbeing
Children who access quality education are more likely to be educated about sanitation therefore reducing the prevalence of communicable disease and decreasing U5MR
Mothers who are educated through childbirth are more likely to access healthcare and decrease the rates of maternal mortality
Name two Partnerships in Australia’s aid program and explain why.
Multilateral organisations – they can implement large scale (even global) projects that would be too large for DFAT to implement.
Bilateral partnerships – providing aid to our neighbouring countries helps to build regional security and assist neighbours to reduce poverty and achieve the SDGs.
Other government departments – departments in the federal government such as the Federal Police and Agricultural Department have skills that DFAT doesn’t and can bring these to our aid program.
NGO partnerships – DFAT provides funding for many NGOs as they reach regions DFAT can’t reach and often have specialised skills, making our aid program more effective.
Private sector – the private sector creates 90% of jobs and also have specialised skills, so they play a key role in increasing employment in low- and middle-income countries.
Through the World Vision program, Namina and her school mates have been able to continue their education at a temporary learning centre.
100000 have been provided with clean drinking water through construction or restoration of 22 water systems.
What type of aid am I?
How has this program promoted human development?
Aid: Bilateral
Human Development: Children are gaining access to knowledge to enable them to live to their full potential.
With access to water, people can live lives they value being free from illness and disease
Provide an example of economic sustainability and how it promotes H&WB.
Economic sustainability through trade means children can stay in School instead of having to work. This promotes social H &WB by allowing children to interact with each other at School. It also enhances the sense of purpose in life as people have more choices in their working lives, promoting Spiritual H &WB,
Sustainable incomes (job creation) mean people can access resources such as food, water, which promote physical H &WB by reducing the risk of infectious diseases,
Economic growth provided sustainable revenue for governments so they can provide public resources such as water and health care. This promotes physical H & WB by reducing the impact of disease.
