Regional Harmonization Initiatives

IMDRF seeks to maintain working relationships with regional organizations and other international entities that have a mutual interest in medical device regulatory activities which are directly related to the common goals of fostering global convergence, leveraging resources and making available safe and effective medical devices globally.

Such organizations may be invited to attend a Management Committee meeting as an observer.

Some of these organizations are:

• APEC LSIF Regulatory Harmonization Steering Committee
• Global Harmonization Working Party (GHWP)
• Pan American Health Organization (PAHO)
