The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) recently created this "DisasterInfo" Web site to serve as a one-stop source of disaster management information from and about Latin America and the Caribbean. Dozens of emergency and disaster organizations in that region have posted "mirror sites" of their Web pages on this reliable, high-speed server. These Web pages, with information in both Spanish and English, thus enable users to retrieve information quickly from numerous sources. Additionally, it includes information about PAHO's Supply Management (SUMA) program, as well as downloadable SUMA software and a SUMA users manual.
