Proposed Activities Continue to enlist support from key stakeholders Health Campaigns Blood lead testing guidelines Identify champions to augment awareness

WHO Guidelines for Prevention and Management of Lead Poisoning Prevention section will include policy and practical interventions –e.g. elimination of non-essential uses of lead –remediation –Blood lead screening & surveillance Management section will include diagnostic methods, use of chelation and supportive therapies Estimated completion – late 2013

WHO Guidelines for Prevention and Management of Lead Poisoning Aim to support decision-making and implementation of best practice for prevention of exposure to lead and diagnosis and treatment of lead poisoning Being developed according to WHO procedures –Systematic evidence reviews to support each intervention –International guideline development group representing different stakeholders –International peer review
