ABOUT IPD
In a unique and innovative way, IPD brings together key capabilities and functions to address public health challenges in Africa.
Created in 1924, Institut Pasteur de Dakar works to accelerate equitable, sustainable and affordable access to health in Africa. As a Senegalese not-for-profit foundation recognized as being of public utility, IPD provides communities with healthcare solutions and laboratory services, engages in cutting-edge biomedical research and innovation, manufactures vaccines and diagnostics essential to African populations, develops human capital, and engages in public health activities such as epidemic intelligence, outbreak response, and surveillance.
100 YEARS
Empowering the Future:
A Centenary of Public Health Excellence
COVID-19 widened the already unacceptable inequalities in access to essential diagnostics, medicines, and vaccines in Africa, and has sparked a movement to enhance regional public health institutions and diversified manufacturing facilities. The Institut Pasteur de Dakar (IPD) has embarked on a transformative journey towards securing a brighter future for public health in Africa and becoming a champion for regional health security. This year, IPD celebrates its 100-year anniversary, representing a significant milestone and invaluable opportunity to review our achievements and look ahead at IPD’s role for the next 100 years.
IPD aims to celebrate its century-long contributions to public health, with the organisation of a week-long event that will showcase IPD’s achievements and set the stage for continued impact on health security and sustainability in Africa.
