PHARMACEUTICAL INNOVATION IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH -OSUN RESEARCH COLLABORATION
INTRODUCTION
There is growing interest in pharmaceutical innovation occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but information on existing activities, capacities, and outcomes is scarce. We mapped available data at the global level, and studied the national pharmaceutical innovation systems of Bangladesh and Colombia to shed light on pharmaceutical research and development (R&D) in the Global South, including challenges and prospects, to help fill existing knowledge gaps.
This page gathers the outputs of the "Research Collaboration on Technology, Equity, and the Right to Health", between the Global Health Centre (GHC) at the Geneva Graduate Institute in Switzerland, the James P. Grant School of Public Health at BRAC University in Bangladesh, and the Universidad de los Andes (ANDES) in Colombia, supported by the Open Society University Network (OSUN) / Open Society Foundations (OSF).
