CRICS is a regional and global forum for the exchange of information between programs, projects, systems, and information networks in health and scientific communication, such as the VHL and the Public Health Virtual Campus (CVSP).

CRICS9 provides three days of full activities such as lectures, roundtables, panels, and workshops. It begins immediately after the VI Regional Coordination Meeting of the VHL. It is organized by the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) through its specialized center, BIREME, which also coordinates the event’s Scientific Committee.

ü       Telehealth - models and programs applied to primary care, telehealth services development integrated into national health systems
