Videos Highlight 100 Years of Health
In celebration of the Centennial of the Pan American Health Organization, the Office of Public Information  has produced a series of videos that highlight the many accomplishments in health in the last 100 years. One of the videos, "Faces Tell The Story", is a 6-minute documentary that shows progress in health through the faces of people from all corners of the Western Hemisphere. There is also a series of twelve 1-minute video promos, with themes such as the erradication of polio, blood donation, child healthy, healthy cities, and a lot more. These promos are available for broadcasting, free of charge. For more information, send us an e-mail message.
