EMA and HMA are organising a workshop on the activities on medicine shortages and initiatives.
The aims of the workshop are to:
- inform stakeholders about the HMA/EMA Task Force activities on medicines shortages and availability and interfaces with other initiatives;
- update stakeholders on progress with the Task Force deliverables and identify areas of agreement as well as areas for further discussion;
- share stakeholders’ perspectives and (ongoing/planned) initiatives to address availability issues and discuss how these can contribute to the future deliverables of the Task Force.
