Aluisio Barros visits Peru to work on the Countdown case study

Aluisio Barros visits Peru to work on the Countdown case study

Peru researchers led by Dr Luis Huicho are working on a Countdown case study for the country aiming to show trends in coverage of key interventions to improve health of women and children and studying how equity in the distribution of such interventions has evolved since the 1990's. The work also involves analyses of policies and regional differences. 

ICEH's Aluisio Barros made a technical visit to the group on 4-6 February to help develop the analysis strategies and refine the proposed work plan. The visit was very productive and the work towards completion of the project is advancing well.
