The National Institute of Public Health, NIPH, is a research Institute and part
of the Ministry of Health in Cambodia working closely with other Institutions
and Centers as well as with the Provincial Directories. The NIPH aims to become
the Center of Excellence for the Cambodian Ministry of Health.
Its main purpose is to give target-oriented and qualified
Public Health training to key health personnel, to analyse health-related
problems, to assist in developing adequate approaches through decision linked
operational research and to support the implementation of the Health Care System
Reform through training and research in linked Provinces.
It will provide policy makers with elements to base their
health care reform on sound scientific evidence, to follow the process of
implementation in analysing developed strategies and compare alternative
approaches taking cost-efficiency into consideration.
