Organization:Office international d'hygiène publique
Template:Infobox Former International Organization
The Office international d'hygiène publique (OIHP) (English: International Office of Public Hygiene) was an international organization founded 9 December 1907 and based in Paris, France . It was created to oversee international rules regarding the quarantining of ships and ports to prevent the spread of plague and cholera, and to administer other public health conventions.[1]
OIHP was part of the complex structure known as the Health Organization (Organisation d'Hygiène) of the League of Nations,[2] in an often-competing, and sometimes collaborative relation with the League of Nations' Health Committee.[3]
The OIHP was dissolved by protocols signed 22 July 1946[4] and its epidemiological service was incorporated into the Interim Commission of the World Health Organization on 1 January 1947.
