ABSTRACT
Following the reorganization of the WHO in 1998–9, the outcome at headquarters in Geneva is an organizational structure around eight clusters. The cluster concerned mainly with international co-operation on environment and development is the Sustainable Development and Healthy Environments (SDE) cluster. SDE consists of five departments: (1) Emergency and Humanitarian Action (EHA); (2) Co-operation and Co-ordination; (3) Nutrition for Health and Development (NHD); (4) Iraq Programme; and (5) Protection of the Human Environment (PHE). For the purpose of this Yearbook, we limit our attention to the last of these, which embodies four departments; (a) Water, Sanitation, and Health; (b) Occupational and Environmental Health; (c) Chemical Safety; and (d) Radiation and Environmental Health.
