As part of the fight to eradicate cholera in Haiti, was held the second annual meeting of the Steering Committee of the Project "Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene" (WASH) with the participation of the National Direction of the Drinking Water and Sanitation (DINEPA), the Ministry of Public Health, the Ministry of National Education, the Head of Canadian Cooperation, the UNICEF Representative and implementing partners, to discuss project progress, challenges and prospects for 2019.
