PAHO and Mundo Sano Foundation sign agreement to strengthen disease elimination and cervical cancer prevention in the Americas

Summary: The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and the Mundo Sano Foundation have teamed up for a massive health mission. Leaders from both groups met in Madrid, Spain, to sign a new agreement focused on protecting women and children in the Americas.

Their main goal is to stop dangerous diseases—like HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B, and Chagas disease—from being passed from mothers to their babies. They are also putting a big spotlight on preventing cervical cancer by expanding access to HPV vaccines, screenings, and early treatments. The first phase of this exciting teamwork will kick off in Argentina and Paraguay. By sharing their expertise and resources, these health leaders are working to build a healthier, safer future for moms and kids everywhere!
