Mayor Lunghi thanked all the institutions that joined the initiative and stressed that “from joint work we will surely achieve important achievements. Last year the pandemic showed that we can work very well in a coordinated and articulated way and that is why we promote this health network in Tandil so that all actors, from the public and private sector, have a dialogue table where we can debate and analyze issues related to the health of our city and consolidate ourselves as a health center in the center of the province ”.

I believe that with will and effort we can move forward and achieve the goals that we set for ourselves. This will be a process that will take time, these are not things that can be achieved overnight, but we are beginning that path. We already have an excellent health service, both in the public and private spheres, but if we work together we can improve even more ”, he added.

What arises with this initiative is the idea of formalizing this framework of reciprocal collaboration, articulation and cooperation, so that there is a permanent table where projects of shared interest can be agreed ”.
“We believe that this is a very important innovation and surely the health of Tandil will go through a horizon of progress in terms of being able to work together on specific projects. The constitution of the table is proposed as a public policy of the State, which does not have to do with a particular government, but transcends the different governments, and that from now on we have a space in which all the voices that are present are present. they are important in terms of health in the territory ”, he added.
