7.2.2 Next steps

Actions have already taken place and will continue at two levels:

• Local level: in the two countries the researchers presented their results to the health personnel and authorities and have discussed ways to improve the situation.

• Global level: results of the research will be used to define strategies for dealing with the complex problem of injections. The outcome could be a WHO policy/strategy paper on the subject of injections in developing countries.
