SPEECH DELIVERED BY DR. EDWARD GREENE, ASSISTANT SECRETARY-GENERAL, HUMAN AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT, CARIBBEAN COMMUNITY (CARICOM) SECRETARIAT AT THE OPENING CEREMONY OF THE NINTH SPECIAL MEETING OF THE COUNCIL FOR HUMAN AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT (COHSOD) [HEALTH], 8 JUNE 2005, BRIDGETOWN, BARBADOS

The idea of the Commission for Health and Development arose out of the concern that the Report of the WHO Commission on Macro-economic and Health, though it provided a dynamic frame of reference did not adequately portray the Caribbean situation.

Hence the Ministers of Health at COHSOD VII in April 2002 recommended that a task Force be established and the Heads of Government in July 2002 mandated the establishment of the Caribbean Commission on health and Development.  In January 2003 the Commission was established with the Support of the WHO- Macro economic Committee.
