    Goals / Remit

    Health Action International is a non-profit, independent global network of consumer groups, public interest NGOs, healthcare professionals, academics, and individuals working on pharmaceutical policy issues. HAI’s mission is to increase access to essential medicines and improve their rational use through research excellence and evidence-based advocacy.

    In Europe, HAI has grown to become a pre-eminent voice in medicines policy intervention, supported by a strong European network of approximately 130 individual and organisation members from 19 European Union (EU) Member States and other non-EU countries. The HAI Europe projects team, based in Amsterdam and Brussels, is responsible for coordinating the work programme and related activities within the European region. HAI monitors and advocates on EU policies that affect medicines on three key thematic priorities: Access to Needed Medicines, the Rational Use of Medicines, and the Good Governance of Medicines Policy. HAI’s work is carried out in collaboration with various stakeholders, including public health orientated NGOs. Targeted campaigns and activities are implemented to ensure that public awareness is raised with the aim to sensitise decision-makers in governments and European Union institutions to support policies that improve public health.
