What is FIP doing in this area?

FIP is committed to:

  • Support pharmacy associations with an overview of the skills that pharmacists might need when working in disaster preparedness or emergency situations.
  • Liaise with national ministries of health and other relevant stakeholders to increase the impact and outcomes for pharmacists working in these settings.
  • Create visibility for this specific role pharmacists can also have to encourage colleagues around the world to engage in humanitarian activities.
  • Share among FIP member organisations any opportunities for engagement and success stories in these areas, promoting cross-collaboration.
  • Continue to engage our stakeholders and empower our regional and national leaders and stakeholders to strengthen humanitarian work. 
  • Promote interprofessional collaborative work in humanitarian settings.
  • Make available any resources or those essential for humanitarian work.
