  • Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs

    The Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs funds many of the Institut Pasteur’s international programmes and programmes that are carried out by members of the Institut Pasteur International Network. In particular, the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs finances FSP programmes such as the FSP Meningitis project, and has previously funded an FSP project on antibiotic resistance. The Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs also funds researcher exchange visits via the Hubert Curien Partnership and technical assistant positions within the International Network.
  • The "Support, Training and Capacity Improvement" programme aims to improve monitoring networks for influenza viruses (particularly the avian influenza virus) in Africa and South-East Asia and to carry out epidemiological studies. To meet these objectives, this programme provides appropriate training to ensure that support is available for investigations in the event of an epidemic.
  • The Ministry of Higher Education and Research provides different types of funding for research at the Institut Pasteur. In 2008, its contribution totalled €47.3 million.
  • Ministry of Health and Sports

    The Ministry of Health and Sports provides funding for many of the major programmes in the Institut Pasteur International Network, one of which is an influenza programme in Africa. In addition, the Ministry of Health and Sport has financed the building of a new training facility at the National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology (NIHE) in Hanoi. The Institut Pasteur in Paris houses half of France’s National Reference Centres (CNR): these are partly funded by the French Institute for Public Health (InVS), which operates under the aegis of the Ministry of Health and Sport.
