The Phase I project will assess laboratory capacity across the region, evaluate the feasibility of cross-border testing arrangements, and develop a detailed, sustainable implementation model for two regional hubs. The project will build the foundation for Phase II, in which the selected laboratories will be strengthened to serve multiple countries lacking in-country testing capacity.
