Message from the PNHRS Lead Coordinator

Greetings to all of our partners in health!

I extend my warmest welcome to everyone joining us in the 15th Philippine National Health Research System Week hosted by the Central Luzon Health Research and Development Consortium (CLHRDC)!

This year, we banner the theme “Health Research: Responding to Challenges towards National Recovery and Resiliency.” Along with our thrust for a strong recovery and a pandemic-resilient healthcare system, we highlight the importance of health research and innovation. As with all such conferences, including this year’s PNHRS Week, we want to initiate discourse, and advocate for research-based solutions from across disciplines in healthcare.

The strength of the PNHRS lies in its diverse yet interconnected network, as we are always able 
to build on partnerships in R&D to help address the country’s most pressing health concerns and achieve our overall goals in health.

Join us in another meaningful celebration of the PNHRS Week, as we share best practices and 
experiences in pursuit of healthier lives for the Filipinos through health research and development.

Mabuhay ang PNHRS!
