THE International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) has launched a new program designed to advance pharmaceutical workforces across the globe.
The new FIP Workforce Transformation Programme is a "practical and flexible model which will assist countries in assessing their individual pharmacy workforce needs and priorities, support them to develop needs-based national workforce strategies and infrastructure, and provide co-created solutions, tools, mechanisms and resources for implementation," FIP said.
The first national pharmacy body to join the scheme is the Jordan Pharmacists Association, which signed up in Amman yesterday.
FIP CEO Catherine Duggan said the workforce needs a global vision with clear and consensus-based objective consistent with global health strategies - see fip.org.
