In her opening remarks, the First Lady of the Republic of Haiti has highlighted that "... the finding of the health needs of the Haitian people, in addition to the new demographic and epidemiological challenges is the reason that leads to the exercise of strategic thinking." Indeed, 40% of the population still lacks access to health services. This working session also served to highlight the basic epidemiological data, the financial data and the diagnosis the health situation of the country. The reform of the CCM (Country Coordinating Mechanism - a mechanism of coordination for a better management of resources from the Global Fund for HIV / AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria) was also addressed and the request was made so that the First Lady take the leadership of the latter. Ambassador Goosby has focused on the provisions of U.S. Government to support the new administration which he welcomed the commitment. He stressed that the statistics should not frighten, but rather, serve as stimuli in the planning of the response to the needs. The First Lady came out strengthened in her conviction regarding the need to identify in the short term, the strategies and possible actions around the fundamental pillars for the strengthening of health system in Haiti.
