E-DRUG: Website on drug donations

E-DRUG: Website on drug donations
---------------------------------

I want to ask your attention for a new website in seven languages
on the topic of drug donations: http://www.drugdonations.org

For a mailing list service go to the bottom of this message.

Although officially still 'under construction' the
drugdonations.org website already contains a lot of information
about drug donations and other related issues. If you click on
the image appearing accessing the site you will be able to choose
between six languages (the seventh, Russian, will soon follow).

Some examples of the drugdonations.org information:

Guidelines

Several guidelines can be accessed online (instruction: go to the
language of your choice and click on the button 'guidelines' in
the left frame):
- guidelines for drug donations (in all languages)
- guidelines for medical equipment donations (in four languages)
- guidelines for safe disposal of unwanted pharmaceuticals (only
in English)

Also at this part of the site "examples of (in-)appropriate drug
donations" can be found. These examples or cases are not updated
yet with recent information. There is a possibility for the
visitor to provide the site with information on donations' cases.
E-mail address is: mailto:cases.drugdonations@wemos.nl

Future site developments

In the months to follow the website will be filled with more
information, such as instructive 'booklets' on awareness raising
on drug donations and good drug donation practice. Also it will
be made possible to give your support for implementation of the
guidelines via the website.

Comments and additional information

When you have comments to the website or when you have
information you want to suggest to add to the site please contact
the pharmaceuticals programme at Wemos:
mailto:pharmaceuticals@wemos.nl

Stay informed?

At the site there is an ELECTRONIC MAILING LIST SERVICE
operational. This mailing list will inform you in English
language about changes in, and updates of, this site. The service
will provide short notifications by e-mail when a significant
website-change or a major update of information about drug
donations on this site occurs. To go directly (without frame) to
the mailing list subscription site, click
http://cgi.drugdonations.org/mailinglist_form.cgi and follow the
instructions.

I hope you enjoy visiting the site and you will inform your
colleagues and contacts.
