    nThe Federation of Asian Pharmaceutical Associations (FAPA) together with its 18 Member Associations in Countries from the Western Pacific Region, Eastern Mediterranean Region and South East Asian Region, have focused its attention to answer the call of WHO to promote awareness of the rational use of antibiotics to the Public.nnIn a meeting held in the Philippines last September 12, 2015, leaders from over 14 National Pharmacy Associations discussed ways on how to heed the objectives set in the Global Action Plan Against Antimicrobial Resistance in their own countries through a workshop. They also planned the activities that will be organized by FAPA for the month of November during the Antibiotic Awareness Week and agreed to include Antimicrobial Resistance as one of the major topics in the upcoming 2016 FAPA Congress that will be held in Bangkok, Thailand. The Congress is expected to be an excellent venue for pharmacists from different Asian countries to learn about the initiatives and best practices about antimicrobial resistance in other countries which they can apply to the many challenges that pharmacists face in the fight against AMR in their own countries. The meeting was ceremonially concluded with delegates signing a Commitment to Act against Antimicrobial Resistance followed by a press conference attended by the local media.nnFor the Month of November, FAPA launched activities to support the World Health Organization (WHO) campaigns during the Antibiotic Awareness Week held from November 16-22, 2015. FAPA encouraged pharmacists and pharmacy students from member associations to use social media platforms like Facebook® to generate interest among the public on the Rational Use of Antibiotics. The primary aim was to spread the educational materials like infographics produced by WHO in their own networks. To engage the pharmacists, FAPA also initiated the Twibbon® Campaign, providing a way for pharmacists to show their support. Twibbon® is an application that lets Facebook and Twitter Users to easily add to their profile photos a logo and a banner for an event or campaign to show their support. The Twibbon® banner was designed by a member of the Asian Young Pharmacist Group (AYPG). During the few weeks of the campaign, it was able to garner 2,126 supporters from different countries as recorded by the application.nnThe following are the links used by FAPA on social media platforms to provide updates to Pharmacists about developments and upcoming events in pharmacy practice in Asia and to promote awareness on the rational use of antibiotics.n

The programme will starts from July 7th to 13th (for seven days).nnWe will offered travel grant scholarships for international pharmacists through application. The travel grant scholarships will cover a cap-reimbursement for airfare by country, and direct expense regarding the programme here in Taipei (accommodation, transportation, meals and etc.)nnAlso, we will continue to explore (like previous years) the possibility and continuity to recruit international pharmacy students as programmer observers together with our main target, the international pharmacists, in collaboration with regional pharmacy students’ organizations.nnFor any update detail, please refer to FAPA Foundation’s website: https://sites.google.com/site/fapafoundationwebsite/nnIPA Taiwan Hospital Fieldtrip (2016)nnThis fieldtrip was organized by FAPA Foundation, together with our Hospital and Clinical Pharmacy Section, and also the Taipei Veterans General Hospital.  FAPA Foundation first sent invitation to Indonesian Pharmacist Association (IPA) to investigate on the possibility of developing oversea collaboration (our first oversea collaboration is with the University of Philippines Manila and the Philippine General Hospital) to be our 2nd target country.  President Nurul (IPA) had us very good response and from a team of experts to visit Taipei from Feb. 18th ~ 21st. Following programme is for the main fieldtrip on Feb. 19th and at the end of the programme we have a thorough discussion in among FAPA Foundation, IPA, Hospital and Clinical Pharmacy Section of FAPA, and the Taipei Veterans General Hospital.nnFor detail pictures, please refer to this article.nnCommunity pharmacy workshop in Japan (2016)nnOur Community Pharmacy Section chairperson Mr. Naoki Magaribuchi propose this Community Pharmacy Workshop which will take place in Fukuoka, Japan since our discussion on offering member associations to have chance to explore the development of pharmacy practice and implementation of Good Pharmacy Practice in the community pharmacies especially in the developed countries.nnThe Community Pharmacy Workshop will be a three-day programme at around middle of June. But since there’s some communication in between the local (Fukuoka) pharmacist association and the Japan Pharmaceutical Association, for offering better arrangement for us in FAPA to attend, it would take more time for Mr. Magaribuchi to develop the programme in final.nnDue to limited resource, this workshop will have registration fee charge and number of registrants will be limited to two persons from each of our member associations in maximum. Should there be any update from Mr. Magaribuchi, our Bureau and member associations will be the first to be informed.nnFor detail picture, please refer to this article.nnAsian Good Pharmacy Practice Guidelines & RegulationnnCurrently we are collecting Good Pharmacy Practice related guidelines and regulations from around Asia, especially from our member associations.  We not only collected, but look for translated version (English) that we could also share on this website and to our Asian colleagues.nnWe’ve collected:n
