From: Dr K Balasubramaniam <bala@haiap.org>


Dear friends,

Greetings from Sri Lanka. I need your assistance.

NGOs, working on issue of Access to Medicines, including HAI
have drafted a resolution on "Global Framework on Medical Re-
search and Development" soliciting the support of members of the
Executive Board of WHO to sponsor and support this resolution.
The resolution is attached.

The current Chair of the Executive Board is the Minister of
Health from Pakistan. Ministries of Health from your countries
are also current members.

We shall very much appreciate if you will be able to lobby your
ministry and get the Minister to sponsor and support this reso-
lution. You may wish to see the following links for background
information.
