In 2023, the Network of Institutes was chaired by the Kyrgyz Republic represented by Head of the National Institute of Public Health, Zharkynbek Kasymbekov. The year 2024 is the time of the Russian Federation's chairmanship”, continued Elena Shamal, Advisor to the Department of Humanitarian Cooperation, General Political and Social Problems of the CIS Executive Committee, Secretary of the CIS Health Cooperation Council.
