Stakeholder Consultation on Establishing Tier-based Laboratory Networks

The Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO) recently hosted a stakeholder consultation on establishing tier-based laboratory networks aligned with International Health Regulations (IHR) and Universal Health (UH). With the development of the framework for the establishment of the tier-based laboratory networks, it is expected that there will be an enhancement of disease surveillance, outbreak detection and response across the Eastern Caribbean. Saint Lucia, Grenada and St. Vincent & the Grenadines were the countries participating in the stakeholder consultation.
