The State University of Haiti (UEH) was established in the 1920s. It is the largest institution of higher education and research in the country. The University brings together more than 35,000 students, 1,500 professors, some twenty faculties and institutes devoted to teaching and research.

The Ministry of Public Health and Population (MSPP) is the executive body responsible for the formulation and implementation of the National Public Health Policy in Haiti. Their singular mission is to guarantee to all Haitians, without distinction, the right to life and health and to provide them with the appropriate means for the protection, maintenance and restoration of their health.
Promoting Health in Haiti (PHH) was founded in 2010 with the goal of improving health in Haiti by improving nursing education and nursing knowledge.
