| FIP and CPA cement relations FIP and the Commonwealth Pharmacists Association have today signed a memorandum of understanding, defining how the two organisations will work synergistically to advance health for the public benefit by developing the pharmacy profession. FIP and CPA have already been working together on pushing forward the pharmaceutical workforce agenda. “2018 has provided important opportunities for the CPA’s advocacy efforts for the profession around both the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting and Commonwealth Health Ministers Meeting. This year our voice was significantly louder due to the support in these efforts offered by FIP. The impact we have made together is significant and resulted in a recommendation from civil society to invest in the pharmacy workforce being presented to the Commonwealth health ministers,” said CPA executive director Victoria Rutter. |
