Abstract
Abstract With the support of the European Union, the National Laboratory for Public Health and partners did an analysis of the primary healthcare and hospital laboratories in health facilities and identified strengths and weaknesses of the national network of public health laboratories. With that knowledge the LNSP developed in a participatory way a new national Laboratory Policy and thereafter a Strategic Plan 2019 - 2024 that guides the country in strengthening the labs at all levels. This is very much needed as Haiti still suffers of high levels of malaria, tuberculosis, HIV and other infectious diseases. The policy fits in the international Health Security Agenda. Most important lesson learned: by a systematic step by step process of analysis, policy formation and action planning, a research institute can - with support of stakeholders - make an impact on policies and practices.
