E-DRUG: WHO Open Forum on IMPACT
------------------------------
Dear E-Drug members,
We would like to inform you that we had a WHO Open Forum on
International Medical Products Anti-Counterfeiting Taskforce (IMPACT) on
26 March 2010.
The purpose of the meeting was to brief WHO Member States representatives and interested parties on IMPACT.
We invited all the Missions to participate and some interested parties were invited as observers.
The Open Forum was attended by 47 Member States mission representatives, plus EU and 19 NGOs.
While additional materials on the meeting are in preparation, you may want to view the meeting documents which are posted on the following web page:
