Fostering Research Productivity in Côte d’Ivoire

Swiss TPH Since 2000, the research productivity in Côte d’Ivoire has grown steadily above the regional and global rate, despite recurring economic pressures and socio-political unrest. The Centre Suisse de Recherches Scientifiques en Côte d’Ivoire (CSRS), a long-standing partner of the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH), has become one of the country’s most productive research institutions according to a study published yesterday. Jürg Utzinger, Director of Swiss TPH, highlighted this successful partnership at the Swiss Ambassador Congress in Basel on 22 August 2018.
