FIP Congress Programme and Social Events

This year’s programme offers a comprehensive range of topics, from broad to specialized, centered around the most influential and significant issues steering the pharmacy profession and pharmaceutical sciences. Everything from pharmacy policy development and regulations to patient safety to pharmacy education will be the focus of a full programme of sessions. Pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists from all areas of practice, research and academia will be welcomed to partake in the most enriching and educational sessions from global leaders in the field, the majority of which are fully accredited by licensed accrediting bodies from around the world.

To view the programme at a glance based on your particular area of interest, from Community and Hospital Pharmacy to Pharmaceutical Sciences and Clinical Applications, please visit http://www.fip.org/beijing2007

Further to the educational opportunities, this year’s FIP Congress will not disappoint on social engagements. The Opening Ceremony will welcome attendees to the historic People’s Hall, adjacent to Tian'anmen Square, and little will match the experience of dining alongside the Great Wall of China at the Farewell Dinner.

China - growing, changing, and evolving

China is now on the cusp of many changes with regards to healthcare, public and private responsibility and social welfare. From new Essential Medicines lists, to the emergence of the country as a growing center for Clinical Trials, China promises to captivate the world with what is to come.

The push is on in China to benefit from the expanding economy to improve health services and access to medicines for all demographics of China's constantly growing population. Changes in legislation are leading to more effective drug manufacturing processes, in turn leading to better access and care in the country.

These are but some issues that FIP will be following leading up to September. Look for more coverage of China and the FIP Congress in Beijing in newsletters to come!
