New CANDHI (Central American Network for Disaster and Health Information) Website
Created with support from the U.S. National Library of Medicine, the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction, and the Pan American Health Organization, the site has been designed as a platform for collaboration and exchange between information centers on disasters and health from the Central American region, and to promote and introduce the services and productes offered by the network.

Information Resources on Climate Changes
Searching for ways to adapt to current needs and topics of interest, CRID—with the support of ISDR and PAHO/WHO—is working in the development of information resources on climate change, a subject that has become a priority for CRID users. A thematic CD will be created, and there will be a special section in the website to facilitate access to this specialized information.

CRID invites readers to send technical documents, bibliographic, audiovisual material, etc., that will be incorporated into this new product. Write to: crid@crid.or.cr
