12 December, 2024

Dear HIFA-English colleagues,

I would like to thank our HIFA-Spanish coordinator Jackeline Alger (Honduras) for giving a presentation today at the IX Congress of the Central American and Caribbean Association of Infectious Diseases (ACENCAI) on behalf of HIFA.

Note: Jackeline is an exemplar HIFA volunteer: over several years she has built a wide portfolio of HIFA activities, including HIFA Country Representative for Honduras (which now has more members than any other Spanish-speaking country); Regional Coordinator for the Americas (supporting CRs across the region); and Coordinator for HIFA-Spanish (supporting a moderation team of volunteers from the HIFA-Spanish membership). https://www.hifa.org/support/members/jackeline

Her presentation is titled "Towards universal access to reliable healthcare information: a global consultation for the World Health Organization, and it is based on HIFA's recent consultation report. This report has been presented at the Global Evidence Summit in Prague on 10 September and at the HIFA Supporting Organisation event on 7 November.
