Critical Medicines Alliance
On 16 January 2024 the European commission’s Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority (HERA) launched a call for interested parties to join their Critical Medicines Alliance. This alliance, will allow national authorities, industry, civil society representatives, the commission and EU agencies to develop coordinated action against shortages of critical medicines. The Alliance, which will consist of a Forum and a Steering Board as well as a number of working groups, is expected to be an inclusive and transparent consultative platform to the European Commission and other EU decision-makers. It will work on the more than 200 active substances that were included in the EU list of critical medicines published by the EMA December 2023.
