Follow-up mission to Vietnam
20 August 2007 | Following the interagency imPACT mission to Vietnam of 29 October - 2 November 2006, a draft report containing recommendations for strengthening the different areas of cancer control within the country was presented to the national authorities. In order to propose specific actions, there is a need for a prolonged presence in the field to:
- gather complementary information
- advise the National Steering Committee on its mode of operations and
- set in motion the process agreed upon by the Vietnamese authorities and PACT.
Dr. Elio Omobono, PACT consultant, will undertake a mission to Vietnam on 20 August to 10 September to address these issues.
