Bulletin interne de l'Institut Pasteur
First statement from the Pasteur International Network Association to the World Health Assembly
The 70th World Health Assembly was held from 22 to 31 May in Geneva. On this occasion, the Pasteur International Network association made its first statement during the session "Research and Development on Potentially Emerging Diseases" thanks to Nadia Khelef, representative of the Institut Pasteur at WHO.
The recognition in 2016 of Pasteur International Network association (page in French) as a non-state actor in official relations with WHO enables it to sit in the World Health Assembly and its executive bureau and thus increase the visibility of its actions toward the United Nations’ health institution and other major international stakeholders.
