[afro-nets] Africa Health Day 2004

Africa Health Day 2004
----------------------

Although Africa is the richest continent, it has historically
been perceived as a continent of relentless humanitarian emer-
gencies caused by political instability, disease, famine and
war. However, there are many positive development initiatives in
Africa that have succeeded and flourished. This event will high-
light those positive programs in health in Africa and will offer
opportunities to explore how to build a bridge to sustainable
development.
