HIFA Global Networks
“This will be the century of networks, connectivity, and interdependence, and all of these will enable us to overcome the barriers of space and time and to open up heretofore unimaginable possibilities for humanity… a giant step toward ensuring that our knowledge and experience converge into finding new modes of exchanging technical cooperation for sustainable human development”
Dr. Mirta Roses Periago, WHO Regional Director for the Americas, 31 January 2003
