Inspire, Innovate, integrate: Transforming Medicine Safety in LMICs
About this webinar
Falsified medicines pose a critical threat to public health in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The World Health Organization estimates that 1 in 10 medical products in these regions are fake or substandard, leading to treatment failures, prolonged illness, and preventable deaths. Weak supply chain oversight, fragmented regulatory frameworks, and limited access to verification tools have allowed these medicines to proliferate, creating an urgent need for coordinated solutions.
Our experts at Solidsoft Reply will explore the current landscape of medicine safety in LMICs, examining regulatory efforts, supply chain vulnerabilities, and global initiatives aimed at strengthening verification and traceability. We will discuss the WHO’s Digital Health Supply Chain guidelines, the push for National Product Catalogues, and key initiatives such as the WHO/VillageReach PCMT project. Additionally, we will look at how digital solutions, like the TRVST verification system and SafeHandsVT, are being deployed to address these challenges.
Who Should Attend
Our ‘Inspire, Innovate, integrate: Transforming Medicine Safety in LMICs’ webinar is designed for anyone interested in medicine safety, pharmaceutical regulation, and supply chain management in LMICs. Whether you work in healthcare, policymaking, logistics, international aid, or research, this session offers valuable insights into the challenges and solutions shaping medicine verification.
Through real-world examples and a demonstration, we will showcase how mobile verification, real-time alerts, and digital tools are helping to safeguard medicine supply chains.
Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of global and national initiatives, regulatory frameworks, and emerging technologies that are transforming medicine safety. You’ll learn how to identify and address gaps in supply chain traceability, explore the role of digital tools in real-time verification, and understand how key developments in medicine safety can inform policy and practice.
If you are interested in the future of pharmaceutical traceability in LMICs, this session provides essential context, knowledge, and practical examples to enhance your work in the field. Attendees will leave with actionable insights and a clearer vision of how collaborative efforts and innovation can drive lasting improvements in medicine safety.
