On the 26th of January 2024, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has received a grant of ten million euros from the European Commission to support the establishment of the African Medicines Agency (AMA).
The AMA, a specialized agency of the African Union, aims to improve access to quality and safe medical products in Africa. EMA will share its expertise and regulatory model with AMA to help regulate medicines efficiently and effectively. This collaboration is part of the ‘Team Europe’ initiative to strengthen regulatory capacity in Africa.
