Overall, the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region\u00a0received modest\u00a0attention from the P4H Network until 2022. The notable exceptions were Haiti<\/a>, which benefited from a P4H-CFP from 2014 to 2020, and Colombia, which collaborated with Agence fran\u00e7aise de d\u00e9veloppement in 2013-2014. The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) was the only member of the P4H Network from the Americas up until 2022. The P4H Network has since 2022 substantially increased its activity in LAC. The Costa Rican Social Security Fund<\/a> (CCSS) joined P4H, as have two academic members, the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru<\/a> and University of Antioquia<\/a> in Colombia.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”TEXT – BLOCK 2 ” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||1em||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Although certain countries in the region have made advances, challenges to progress towards UHC remain.
