>> Venezuelan success story on bringing health care to the marginalized
>> María Páez Victor, MA, Ph.D
>>
>> For decades the Venezuelan people suffered compounded neglect of its
>> health needs, both in terms of medical care as well as in terms of the
>> social and economic determinants of health. The democratic government
>> of Hugo Chávez, recognizing the immediate health needs of the
>> Venezuelan people, bypassed ineffective governmental ministries and,
>> with the help of Cuba and the active participation of the very people
>> who needed services, created one of the most spectacularly successful
>> health care initiatives today. In this presentation we will examine 
>> the
>> dynamics, achievements and challenges of this innovative health care
>> delivery initiative.
>>
>> Dr. María Páez Victor is a Venezuelan-born sociologist and consultant
>> who teaches Sociology of Health and Medicine at the University of
>> Toronto.
