Innocenti Report Card Places and Spaces: Environments and children’s well-being AUTHOR(S) Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro Published: 2022 Innocenti Report Card Report Card 17 explores how 43 OECD/EU countries are faring in providing healthy environments for children. Do children have clean water to drink? Do they have good-quality air to breathe? Are their homes free of lead and mould? How many children live in overcrowded homes? How many have access to green play spaces, safe from road traffic?Data show that a nation’s wealth does not guarantee a healthy environment. Far too many children are deprived of a healthy home, irreversibly damaging their current and future well-being.Beyond children’s immediate environments, over-consumption in some of the world’s richest countries is destroying children’s environments globally. This threatens both children worldwide and future generations. To provide all children with safe and healthy environments, governments, policymakers, businesses and all stakeholders are called to act on a set of policy recommendations. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 84 | Tags: child well-being, environmental degradation, environmental health, environmental legislation, environmental pollution, health hazards, high-income countries, oecd countries, policy making × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro 2022 Places and Spaces: Environments and children’s well-being. , pp. 84.
Innocenti Report Card Innocenti Report Card 17: Luoghi e spazi. Ambiente e benessere dei bambini AUTHOR(S) Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro Published: 2022 Innocenti Report Card La Report Card 17 analizza i risultati ottenuti da 43 paesi dell'OCSE/UE nel garantire ambienti sani per i bambini. I bambini bevono acqua potabile? Respirano aria di buona qualità? Le loro case sono prive di piombo e muffa? Quanti bambini vivono in case sovraffollate? Quanti hanno accesso ad aree di gioco verdi e lontane dal traffico stradale? I dati dimostrano che la ricchezza di una nazione non garantisce un ambiente sano. Troppi bambini non vivono in un ambiente domestico salubre, una condizione che determina danni irreversibili al loro benessere attuale e futuro. I consumi eccessivi in alcuni dei paesi più ricchi del mondo, stanno distruggendo sia gli ambienti con cui i bambini sono strettamente a contatto che quelli a livello globale. Una minaccia per l’infanzia e l’adolescenza di tutto il mondo e per le generazioni future. Per garantire a tutti i bambini ambienti sani e sicuri, i governi, i responsabili politici, le imprese e tutte le parti interessate sono chiamati ad agire sulla base di una serie di raccomandazioni politiche. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 86 | Tags: child well-being, environmental degradation, environmental health, environmental legislation, environmental pollution, health hazards, high-income countries, oecd countries, policy making × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro 2022 Innocenti Report Card 17: Luoghi e spazi.

Innocenti Report Card Résumé analytique: Lieux et espaces. Environnements et bien-être des enfants AUTHOR(S) Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro Published: 2022 Innocenti Report Card Le Bilan Innocenti 17 examine comment 43 pays de l'OCDE/UE réussissent à offrir un environnement sain aux enfants. Disposent-ils d’eau potable ? Respirent-ils un air de qualité ? Vivent-ils dans des foyers exempts de plomb et de moisissure ? Combien d’enfants vivent dans des foyers surpeuplés ? Combien d’entre eux ont accès à des espaces de jeu verts, loin des dangers de la circulation routière ?Les données indiquent que la richesse d’une nation ne signifie pas qu’un environnement sain est assuré. Un trop grand nombre d’enfants ne bénéficient pas d’un foyer sain dans lequel s’épanouir, ce qui nuit irréversiblement à leur bien-être actuel et futur.Au-delà de l'environnement immédiat des enfants, le phénomène de surconsommation dans les pays les plus riches entraîne une dégradation de l’environnement pour les enfants du monde entier. Cette dégradation constitue une menace, non seulement pour les enfants à l’échelle planétaire, mais aussi pour les générations futures. Afin de protéger et améliorer l’environnement des enfants, les gouvernements, les décideurs, les entreprises et toutes les parties prenantes sont appelés à agir sur un ensemble de recommandations politiques. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 8 | Tags: child well-being, environmental degradation, environmental health, environmental legislation, environmental pollution, health hazards, high-income countries, oecd countries, policy making × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro 2022 Résumé analytique: Lieux et espaces.

Innocenti Report Card Resumen: Lugares y espacios. Entornos y bienestar infantil AUTHOR(S) Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro Published: 2022 Innocenti Report Card El informe Report Card n.º 17 analiza cómo es la situación en 43 países de la OCDE/UE en la provisión de entornos saludables para los niños. ¿Tienen agua no contaminada que puedan beber? ¿Aire de buena calidad para respirar? ¿Están sus hogares libres de plomo y moho? ¿Cuántos niños viven en condiciones de hacinamiento en sus casas? ¿Cuántos tienen acceso a zonas verdes para jugar a salvo del tráfico?Los datos muestran que la riqueza de un país no garantiza un entorno saludable. Muchos niños se ven privados de vivir en hogares saludables, lo que daña de forma irreversible su bienestar actual y futuro. Más allá de los entornos inmediatos de los niños, el consumo excesivo en los países más ricos está destruyendo los entornos de la infancia globalmente. Esto amenaza no solo a los niños de todo el mundo como a las generaciones futuras. A efecto de poder proporcionar a todos los niños entornos seguros y saludables, los gobiernos, los encargados de formular políticas, las empresas y todas los actores interesados se les solicita actuar sobre un conjunto de recomendaciones de políticas. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 8 | Tags: child well-being, environmental degradation, environmental health, environmental legislation, environmental pollution, health hazards, high-income countries, oecd countries, policy making × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Eszter Timar; Anna Gromada; Gwyther Rees; Alessandro Carraro 2022 Resumen: Lugares y espacios.

Innocenti Discussion Papers Global Climate Change and Child Health: A review of pathways, impacts and measures to improve the evidence base AUTHOR(S) David Parker; Yoko Akachi; Donna Goodman Published: 2009 Innocenti Discussion Papers This paper reviews the published evidence of pathways and impacts of global climate change on child health. The review was occasioned by the recognition that most of the work to date on climate change and health lacks clear focus on the children's dimension, while the climate change and children literature tends to be brief or imprecise on the complex health aspects. Studies were identified by searching the PubMed database for articles published before April 2009. Publications by agencies (e.g., UNICEF, WHO, IPPC) were also included based upon review. A list of references was developed that provide evidence to the linkages between climate change and health outcomes, and on specific health outcomes for children. The analysis explores the hypothesis of disproportionate vulnerability of children’s health to environmental factors, specifically those most closely related to climate change. Based upon scientific and policy research conducted to date there is found to be substantial evidence of disproportionate vulnerability of children in response to climate change. The diseases likely to be potentiated by climate change are already the primary causes of child morbidity and mortality, including vector-borne diseases, water-borne diseases and air-borne diseases. For this reason further research, assessment and monitoring of child health in respect to climate change is critical. Proposals are made for governments to integrate environmental health indicators into data collection in order to accurately assess the state of child health in relation to other age groups and its sensitivity to climate change. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 22 | Thematic area: Child Protection | Tags: child health, environmental degradation, environmental effects, malnutrition × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION David Parker; Yoko Akachi; Donna Goodman 2009 Global Climate Change and Child Health: A review of pathways, impacts and measures to improve the evidence base. , pp. 22.
