Webinar | JAGntd | Nudging the Industry (1): Visualizing Pharmaceutical Companies' Efforts
Session 5 introduces the work done by the Access to Medicine Foundation (AMF). AMF is an independent non-profit organization whose mission is to stimulate and guide pharmaceutical companies to improve access to medicine in low- and middle-income countries. By publishing the Access to Medicine Index, the AMF fosters competition to improve access among pharma companies. The invited speaker will explain what AMF considers as key access barriers and how AMF has changed the pharma industry towards better access. This session also explores a view of a Japanese investment company that endorses AMF. The audience will understand the implication of AMF's work on access to NTD medicines in the world.
