The Global Self-Care Federation (GSCF) in partnership with Diagnostic Imaging, Healthcare IT and Radiation Therapy Trade Association (DITTA), the International Council of Biotechnology Associations (ICBA), and the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Associations (IFPMA), launched a joint statement on the Framework for Non-State Actors (FENSA) during the 146th session of the WHO Executive Board meeting.
The new statement encourages further collaboration with health care industries to ensure FENSA guidelines are adopted as an enabler for productive engagement, rather than as a barrier. It calls for increased clarity for engagement by Non-State Actors in the consultation process so as to fully harness capabilities in innovation.
