International and multilateral organisations in the health and research fields are primarily responsible for setting norms, standards and working directly with countries, through ministries.

As a strategic partner, COHRED can provide your programme with broader reach in countries – for example, with research institutions, civil society, community groups or the media. And can support the practical implementation of international strategies standards or agreements, at country level.

Current examples of this work include:

• Facilitating a consultative process with African countries to help them put into action the Global Strategy and Plan of Action on Public Health, Innovation and Intellectual Property Rights.

• Working with countries as part of the Yaounde Process to help define national needs for health innovation.

• Producing original research to present scenarios and a framework they countries can use to set national strategies for health innovation and technology transfer for medicinies.
