Injuries and violence pose a major public health and development problem worldwide, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries, resulting in an estimated five million deaths each year, as well as many more who suffer non-fatal but disabling injuries. This publication seeks to help improve the lack of reliable and valid injury information, by providing guidance for the use of a robust but accessible methodology for collecting community injury data, with the aim of highlighting this serious public health problem.
