To ensure that Africa's medical products regulatory system works effectively, the AMRH works closely with partners and stakeholders. The AMRH Partnership Platform is the Steering Group for the African chapter of the WHO's global Coalition of Interested Parties (CIP), which aims to effectively manage and coordinate different partners and stakeholders involved in this stream of work around the world, to avoid duplication, ensure optimal utilization of resources and establish consensus on priority areas of intervention.
The AMRH PP provides different cross-cutting stakeholders working to strengthen the regulatory system in Africa with a platform to share their lessons, define collective impact and identify like-minded partners to go along with. It is a multi-stakeholder mechanism with a continent-wide perspective, critical to ensuring that partners can enhance the implementation of AMRH and various regulatory systems strengthening programmes and harmonization initiatives
