WHO/PAHO Fellowships cancelled for Canadians
---------------------------------------------
Due to budget cutbacks within the World Health Organization (WHO)
and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), Health Canada
regrets to announce that the annual WHO/PAHO Fellowships
competition will not be held in 1996. This program allowed
selected Canadians to undertake short-term self-directed studies or
courses abroad.
Applicants selected in the 1995 competition will be able to
complete their program; however, no competition will be held in
1996. The future of the Fellowships program beyond 1996 has not
yet been decided.
