Katrina Perehudoff, Pramiti Parwani and Anniek de Ruijter, from the Law Centre for Health and Life together with Carlos Dúran, Ivan Demchenko, Valentina Mazzanti and Fatima Suleman, pubished an article in The Lancet Regional Heath on the Impact of the European Union on access to medicines in low- and middle- income countries.

The scoping review analyses the impact of European Union (EU) laws, regulations, and policies on medicine access in non-EU low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) from 1995 to 2021. It identifies three key ways the EU influences pharmaceutical access in LMICs: through explicit agreements between EU-LMICs (ex. accession, trade, and economic agreements); LMICs' reliance on EU internal regulation, standards, or methods (ex. market authorisation); ‘soft’ forms of EU influence (ex. research funding, capacity building). The study emphasizes the need for global equitable access principles to guide EU-policy in this area due to the fragmented nature of EU-actions in the pharmaceutical field.
