There are many healthcare challenges facing the Latin American region. Some of these include child malnutrition, high infant mortality rates, the spread of AIDS, the lack of reproductive health options, etc. These challenges are further aggravated by the poverty existent within much of the rural areas as well as the urban areas, where the majority of the population is concentrated. This site aims to keep track of any development within this area in terms of new programs, initiatives, policies, organizations, etc.
