Quadrennial Report of the Director 1994-1997. Leading Pan American Health
In the past, the Report of the Director of the Pan American
Health Organization has been an account of the work of the
Secretariat and the countries. On this occasion, instead of a
description of activities carried out at the various levels and in
the various parts of the Organization, the Report seeks to
describe the impact of our work over the past four years and to
determine to what extent we have contributed to the progress in
health that the countries of the Americas have made. It
examines the commitments made four years ago and the results
of our actions in fulfilling them. The companion paho
publication, Health in the Americas, describes in detail the
changes in health that have taken place and analyzes some of
the major trends in our Region.
