Health & HIV/AIDS Committee

The Sectoral Committee was set up under the CIMC Terms of Reference to operate as a thematic group on Health issues with the aim to provide expert advice on specific and cross-sectoral issues and contribute to broad-based sectoral discussions on policy and integrated policies and plans relevant to effective health service delivery in the country.

The Committee is chaired by the Secretary for the Department of Health  and its purpose is to maintain constant and sustained dialogue between members and relevant stakeholders on issues affecting health service delivery and bring forward to Government recommendations to address health service delivery issues faced in the country. The Committee can also propose appropriate strategies to address hindrances and impediments to service delivery.

The Committee also contributes and shares information with policymakers and implementers of key Government plans, policies and strategies going forward. Supporting advocacy creating awareness on HIV/AIDS, population growth and its impact on economic growth and environment sustainability and gender equality and social inclusion are also part of the Committee's undertakings.
