Next Steps: 2009-2012
• November 2009: with technical assistance from Fiocruz and IHMT-Lisboa, develop long-term plan for human resources to meet INS mission/priority needs.
• Work with IANPHI and Fiocruz to implement human resources plan. Focus includes systems and personnel for surveillance, outbreak investigation (FELTP), research and laboratory sciences.
• U.S. CDC will support complementary activities: FELTP, training and lab improvements.

2009-2010: Next Steps: a new facility?
• IANPHI does not fund buildings.
• Need was so great, decision was made to begin design and work as a team to bring potential funders to facility.
![Page 14: National Institute of Health of Mozambique (Instituto Nacional de Saúde, INS)](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5681451a550346895db1db69/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Next Steps: a new facility? • CUH2A’s Design for Others has committed 1000+
hours to design facility based on INS strategic plan priorities
• CDC has committed funds for local design and project management
• IANPHI and U.S. CDC seeking funding for the project from the US Government; other donors sought.

Conclusions
• Facility and human resources are linked. Both are needed to transform public health in Mozambique.
• A building is only as strong as its inhabitants. Human resources capacity will be integral to the success of this project.
