The invitation-only 2010 PAHO/PAHEF Awards for Excellence in Inter-American Public Health Event was an unprecedented opportunity to support the work of the Pan American Health and Education Foundation (PAHEF) and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO, the Regional Office of the Americas of the World Health Organization).
This event brought together representatives from throughout the Americas with an interest in public health, including ministers of health, ambassadors, high-level officials, leading health experts, and top-level executives from Fortune 500 companies. It was the perfect setting to meet those who shared a common commitment for improving the health of people throughout the Americas and form new partnerships to reach this goal.
This special event coincided with the 50th meeting of the PAHO Directing Council. The evening celebrated the partnership between PAHO and PAHEF to improve health and health education in the Americas.
