Needless to say, I am most happy to forward to you a communication from Dr. Louis Verhoestraete on a subject which has long been of deep personal concern to me. From his letter it will be apparent that the World Health Organization attaches very great importance to its work in the field of maternal and child health, and Dr. Verhoestraete has explained in some detail the methods and philosophy behind the international activities of WHO in its work for children. Dr. Verhoestraete is a Belgian paediatrician with considerable international experience. He received his early medical and paediatric training in Belgium, The Netherlands and The United Kingdom. He carried on a private paediatric practice in Antwerp and was Medical Adviser to the Belgian National Committee on Children's Health from 1942 to 1947. In this latter year he was sent on a mission by the Ministry of Public Health in Belgium to study child health administration and modern paediatrics in the USA. At the end of eight months, in 1947, he joined the WHO staff as paediatric consultant to UNICEF in Paris, and since 1950 he has been Chief of the Maternal and Child Health Section at WHO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.
