ZNLA 2026 SYMPOSIUM & ANNUAL AWARDS

The Zambia National Laboratory Association (ZNLA) proposes to host the 2026 ZNLA Symposium and Annual Laboratory Awards, a flagship national event designed to advance laboratory quality, innovation, and professional collaboration across Zambia’s laboratory sector.

Under the theme “Advancing Laboratory Practices, Innovation, and Quality Infrastructure for Sustainable Development”, the two-day Symposium will convene laboratories from the public and private sectors, regulators, academia, industry stakeholders, development partners, and equipment suppliers to share knowledge, strengthen partnerships, and explore emerging trends in laboratory science and quality management. The event will culminate in a prestigious Annual Awards Gala, recognizing laboratories and professionals who have demonstrated excellence in quality systems, innovation, safety, customer service, and sector leadership. The ZNLA Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on the third day.
