Work History

National Consultant of Non Communicable Diseases

Pan American Health Organization
03.2021 - Current
  • Led successful initiatives to improve the situation of childhood cancer in the country, as the Global Initiative for Childhood Cancer. Some outstanding results during my work in PAHO were the reduction in the rate of treatment abandonment, the reduction in diagnosis times, the development of a national cancer registry, and the strengthening of cancer and childhood cancer care services in the country.
    Since 2023, I have been providing technical cooperation in cancer and other non-communicable diseases to the Ministry of Health of Peru, working closely with various Directorates such as Cancer, Health Promotion, Directorate of Non-Communicable Diseases and Communication, Directorate of Mental Health, among others. In addition, I provide cooperation on child health issues, such as the development of a neonatal morbidity and mortality surveillace system, a National Multisectoral Plan to combat Anemia, and collaboration in child nutrition. As part of my duties, I have facilitated interprogrammatic work with the various technical areas of PAHO, developing and implementing regulatory and policy documents on NCDs and their risk factors, cancer, and childhood cancer policies, as well as educational strategies and resources to meet the objectives of the collaboration.
