Opposition Leader Douglas Appointed To High-Level PAHO Commission
Former Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition, Rt. Hon. Dr. Denzil L. Douglas has been appointed as a member of a high-level commission that was convened by the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) to propose solutions for expanding health coverage and access in the Americas, with the goal of leaving no one behind by 2030.
Dr. Douglas was appointed by PAHO’s Director Carissa Etienne earlier this month to be a member of the recently launched Regional Forum on Universal Health in the 21st Century: 40 Years of Alma-Ata.
The high-level commission is headed by former president of Chile, Michelle Bachelet.
