Resumen
Descripción
Jim Yong Kim, President of the World Bank Group, said he was honored to share the Prince Mahidol award with a
distinguished group of individuals who have spent many years
fighting to end the HIV-AIDS epidemic. He said that Thailand
was the first developing country to mount a successful HIV
prevention response. Thailand’s successes in AIDS prevention
and treatment were not inevitable, neither was its quest for
universal health coverage. He have learned that investing in
people is not just the right moral choice, ambitious reforms
require skillful balancing of competing demands and a
handful of committed people with vision have the power to
change the world. He concludes that lessons are
universal and timeless that we can achieve great things, if
we learn from history, and contribute to a lasting
evidence-based wisdom.
