Barriers and facilitators to the implementation of lay health worker programmes to improve access to maternal and child health: qualitative evidence synthesis
Most Cochrane Reviews compare the effects of different interventions or strategies on outcomes. But, we are now seeing reviews that use qualitative research evidence to explore why things happen, more than what things happen. Claire Glenton from the Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services in Oslo describes one of the early examples of this type of review. The review was written by a team from Norway, South Africa, the UK and Iran and was published in October 2013 and looks at the role of lay health workers in maternal and child health.

Safety from Syria
UN Refugee Agency High Commissioner António Guterres described the Syrian crisis this week as the great tragedy of the century, a "disgraceful humanitarian calamity with suffering and displacement unparalleled in recent history." Every 15 seconds a Syrian seeks refuge in neighbouring countries. UNHCR spokesperson Andrej Mahecic describes a typical refugee's journey from the stricken country and how their health needs are addressed when they reach refugee camps and host communities in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey.
