Fully mobilised to address global public health challenges, Expertise France helps strengthen hospital cooperation. In Ukraine, as well as in several countries in Africa and the Middle East, the agency is supporting the development of quality hospital services.

As set out in France’s Global Health Strategy, international hospital cooperation is an essential tool for cooperation, development and influence.

Hospital partnerships provide partner countries with support for the realisation of hospital projects, quality processes and procedure manuals. They also provide assistance with staff training, the development of nursing care, and the organisation and management of hospital facilities. In return, this cooperation enables French hospitals and professionals to promote their expertise and participate in a process to create collective and multidisciplinary dynamics. It also provides an opportunity to re-assess professional practices and global health issues.

Improving the quality of healthcare requires strong partnerships with French university hospital centres (CHU) and referral hospitals. Twelve French hospitals are currently involved in projects with international partners. Since February 2024, the agency has also been managing the “Hospital Networks and Partnerships Project” (PRPH) which is strengthening international hospital cooperation in the focus countries.
