EAHP becomes a member of FIP
FIP annual congress 2009
On 3 September 2009 EAHP was unanimously accepted as a member of the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) by the federation’s council.
EAHP has already been represented at FIP congress seminars and via projects such as the 2008 FIP statements on the future of hospital pharmacy, which was co-piloted by Jacqueline Surugue, then President of EAHP.
By joining the FIP, EAHP gains visibility and exposure but more importantly, becomes part of the largest network of pharmacists at a global level and consult FIP on all matters pertinent to medicines. This will give EAHP advocacy power and greater influence on global hospital pharmacy policy making.
