Dear PHARMAPACT

I have been involved for some time now in trying to establish a system of registration in South Africa that serves the needs of all the stakeholders in the process. This has been a difficult task as it requires a paradigm shift away from the bio-medical model of health towards an eco-systemic approach.

I would appreciate your views on the subject as I believe we are exploring new avenues that could be fruitfully applied internationally.

I look forward to your comments.

Regards

Rene Doms
