Embarking on a ground-breaking journey, Rwanda charges forward in its plans to construct a state-of-the-art laboratory with financial backing by the European Union (EU) and WHO technical support.

In May, a team of skilled doctors, visionary laboratory technicians, ingenious engineers, and brilliant architects set their sights on the esteemed Robert Koch Institute in Berlin, Germany, seeking to unravel the secrets of cutting-edge innovation.

Watch and understand more from Dr Brian Chirombo, WHO Representative to Rwanda, and Dr Isabelle Mukagatare, Head of Biomedical Services at the Rwanda Biomedical Centre - the implementing wing at Rwanda's Ministry of Health.

Thank you to the Government of Rwanda and all the healthcare heroes for the dedication to keeping the community safe and healthy in 2022, especially following the COVID-19 pandemic and the threat of Ebola.

Here's to bright and healthy 2023!
