The Pan American Health Organisation has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the global health initiative Unitaid to intensify collaboration to end 30 preventable communicable diseases in the Americas, including the Caribbean, by 2030.
The agreement, signed on the margins of the 77th World Health Assembly, includes, among others, the mobilisation of partners and resources to scale up access to global health innovations and affordable and quality-assured health commodities, as well as to support the local manufacturing of health technologies.
PAHO Director Dr Jarbas Barbosa welcomes the collaboration with Unitaid to ensure that all populations in the Americas benefit from the latest advances in health, such as rapid diagnostic tests and easy-to-administer therapeutics.
