Through federal grant awards, Institut National Hygiene Publique has played a crucial role in strengthening public health systems, capacity, and security to respond to infectious disease outbreaks in Cote d'Ivoire. The Institut has received cooperative agreement awards from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the Protecting and Improving Health Globally: Building and Strengthening Public Health Impact, Systems, Capacity and Security program (CFDA 93.318).

As a subrecipient under grants awarded to The Task Force For Global Health, Inc., the Institut has also helped expand coronavirus testing and treatment capacity, provided health worker vaccinations, and managed medical waste in Cote d'Ivoire. Additionally, the Institut has collaborated with entities like the Pasteur Institute of Cote d'Ivoire, La Nouvelle Pharmacie de la Sante Publique, the Ministry of Agriculture's laboratory, the Directorate of Health Information, and the One Health Platform to enhance surveillance, detection, and response capabilities for influenza, other respiratory diseases, and potential pandemics.
