Evaluation of Risk Exposure among Tripoli’s Children


الملخص
سلامة وصحة الأطفال من الامور المهمة والتي لها أهتمام من العديد من الباحثين ودراسة المخاطر التي يتعرضون لها. طريقة العمل: إعتمدت الدراسة على مقابلة أحد الوالدين للأطفال وإطلاعهم على أهداف الدراسة مع إحترام الخصوصية لكل مشارك. النتائج: 20% فقط من الاطفال يطيعون ولديهم بخصوص إجراءات السلامة، وعندما يحدث خطر الاطفال الأقل عمر يخبرون به أكثر من الأكبر عمراً. ووجدت الدراسة أن البنات دائما يطلبون المساعدة وبنسبة 42% مقارن بألأولاد 33%. التوصيات: كل القطاعات ينبغي أن تتداخل لحماية الأطفال من الحوادث وخاصة الخطيرة والمميتة منها، كما تقع المسؤلية على الباحثين في ليبيا لتوفير بيانات ومعلومات دقيقة عن حوادث الاطفال، مع ضرورة تطوير التشريعات الخاصة بحماية الاطفال
