I invite you to watch my ‘ From Aid to Trade’ keynote speech delivered with standing ovation at the State of the Health Congress organized by the organization ‘ Ansanm pou Ayiti’ on May 11th 2018 at the Karibe Convention Center in Port au Prince, Haiti. During this remark I drew a clear link between the urgent need for Health Care and economic activities. More jobs means more people have means to pay for health contributions which in turn triggers a virtuous cycle of better care within the population.
