| Summary |
"This book focuses on the work of Haitian health professionals in humanitarian aid encounters. Haitian doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other health care workers act as intermediaries between actors from the global North (the United States, Canada and Europe) and Haiti's majority population, many of whom do not have access to decent care. This book address the reasons why international aid in Haiti suffers from a lack of coordination and some of the reasons why certain interventions succeed while others fail"-- Provided by publisher |
