PAHO/WHO Country Cooperation Strategy: Belize, 2017-2021

The Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) provides technical cooperation through the PAHO/WHO Country Office in Belize. The Country Cooperation Strategy outlines the medium-term vision that will guide PAHO/WHO’s work Belize in support of the country’s National Health Sector Strategic Plan 2014-2024.

PAHO/WHO works with the MOH (as its main counterpart) and other partners to strengthen health sector capacity and advance priority programs. The priorities of the CCS are also aligned to the PAHO Strategic Plan 2014-2019 (HSSP), “Championing Health: Sustainable Development and Equity” and to the health and health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and encouraging greater multisectoral collaboration in the country. PAHO is committed to ensuring that all people have access to the health care they need, when they need it, with quality and without fear of falling into poverty. Through its work, PAHO promotes the concepts of Universal Health and Health in All Policies (HiAP).
