A team of officials from World Health Organisation are in Rwanda to acquaint themselves with Rwanda’s healthcare programmes.
They will also assess progress on the ground with the view of sharing some success stories with the rest of the continent.
The team is led by Dr. Luis Gomes Sambo the boss of World health Organisation (WHO) in Africa. His visit seeks to reinforce the UN’s country team in health care improvement.
“We intend to reinforce our technical team in Rwanda to address some of the areas that need to be strengthened in collaboration with international agency operating in the field of health,” Dr. Sambo noted.
Dr. Sambo met with President Paul Kagame at Village Urugwiro.
“During my visit to Rwanda, I have found that the health care system in Rwanda has been strengthened at local level with a great positive impact on the people.”
He added, “I have realised enormous progress in the control of certain diseases like malaria, and improving child health”.
“It’s upon this satisfaction that I paid a courtesy call to President Kagame to thank him and his government for these wonderful achievements in the sector”.
