Pasteur Institute International Network

The Pasteur Network, (formerly known as the Pasteur Institute International Network), is a global alliance of 32 institutes, most named after Louis Pasteur, dedicated to addressing public health challenges through scientific research, innovation, and collaboration.[1][2][3] Initially founded in 2011 as the Pasteur International Network, the association adopted a new governance model in 2021 and became the Pasteur Network.[4][5]

Recognized as a non-state actor by the World Health Organization (WHO),[6] the Pasteur Network maintains close ties with national health authorities, with many of its members working alongside local Ministries of Health. The network supports a global infrastructure, comprising more than 50 national and regional reference laboratories, including multiple Biosafety Level 3 facilities, and WHO Collaborating Centers.[7][8]

During major public health crisis, like Ebola,[9] MPox,[10] or COVID-19 pandemic, members from the Pasteur Network worked on different aspect of public health research to tackle the disease, including surveillance,[11] testing and virology analysis.[12]
