The hard work, dedication and commitment put in by, among others, the EPN delegation to the World Health Assembly (WHA) 2007, paid off handsomely when the Rational Use of Medicines (RUM) resolution was passed. Part of the advocacy work done to advance the passing of the resolution was a presentation made to the delegates by the EPN coordinator on behalf of the Network. In addition to calling upon member delegates to pass the resolution, the presentation, titled "Churches advocating for rational use of medicines," highlighted the importance of the involvement of multi-disciplinary bodies in addressing rational use of medicines.
