UN Helps Improve Access to Maternal and Child Health Care in Haiti
A mother and her newborn child benefit from the “Mother and Child in Good Health” programme, created by the World Health Organization (WHO) in cooperation with the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), the Haitian Ministry of Health and Population and the Government of Canada. The programme gives pregnant women and children under five years of age access to free health care in 63 medical centres throughout Haiti for a period of 18 months.
