Further to the fruitful cooperation between the Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population, the Arab

Administrative Development Organization (ARADO), the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), the Gulf

Health Council for Cooperation Council States, and the General Secretariat of the League of Arab States in

holding the 1st and 2nd Arab Conferences on Food, Drug and Medical Devices, the Ministry is pleased to take

2 The Third Arab Conference onFood, Drug and Medical Devices

Based on its accomplishments in the field of pharmaceutical policy, and in ensuring the availability and supply

of drug through the Health Insurance Act -which will be issued soon- as well as its pioneering experience in the

treatment of hepatitis C Virus, the Ministry was keen on co-organizing this Conference for third time.

I am certain that this Conference is a top priority for the political leadership of Egypt, as it opens new horizons

for effective relations, constructive partnerships, and fruitful cooperation between governmental

organizations, scientific and research bodies, manufacturers, and distributors and enhances trust among them.

I look forward to coming out with sound recommendations which guarantee regulatory compliance,

nationalization of the food, drug, and medical devices industries, as well as ensuring their safety and quality in

all Arab states.

Finally, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to the organizers of this Conference and the

scientific committees.

With all best wishes.

President of the Conference

Praise be to Allah, and prayer and peace be upon Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.

Building on the success of the 1st and 2nd Arab Conferences on Food, Drug, and Medical Devices, in promoting

the concept of food, drug, and medical devices control, the 3rd Arab Conference on Food, Drug and Medical

Devices is held in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, during the period from 29 Rajab to 1 Shaaban, (15 – 17 April 2018)

under the title: (Future Begins Today).

The Conference aims to shed light on the outcomes of the 1st and 2nd conferences and their impact on

developing legislative and control processes concerning quality standards of food, drug, and medical devices

and products in the Arab States. The Conference also discusses the challenges and difficulties faced by the

regulatory and control bodies, the marketing agencies, and the manufacturers in the Arab world in these fields.


It further stresses the necessity of reconsidering the local regulations and systems for developing food, drug

and medical devices industries in the Arab world to ensure local self-sufficiency and to be able to compete in

the global market. Thus, we were keen in this Conference to bring together diverse expertise to discuss both

Arab and international experiences to come out with Arab models that match the global market in quality and

efficiency.

We hope that this Conference though held in light of the global economic challenges and industrial blocs will

reflect the spirit of challenge and optimism to overcome the obstacles facing the legislative and control

systems in the Arab States, and help achieve supervisory excellence in food, drug and medical devices sectors,

in a way that ensures thriving local industries to achieve safety and efficiency in food, drug and medical devices

sectors, which will consequently impact the community welfare of the Arab citizen.

Finally, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to the Arab Administrative Development

Organization (ARADO) – League of Arab States, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), the Egyptian

Ministry of Health, the Egyptian National Food Safety Authority (NFSA) and the Gulf Health Council for

Cooperation Council States for their effective support and for providing all the potentials for the success of this

conference, and I would also like to thank all the committees for their efforts, as well as various Arab States for

working as a team for the “Future begins Today”.

I ask God, the Almighty, to guide all efforts to the good of Man, and to help the participants benefit from this

Conference.

May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.


H.E.Dr. Nasser AlqahtaniDirector-General

The Arab Administrative DevelopmentOrganization

As part of our ongoing effort to develop coordination and communication mechanisms among all parties concerned

with the safety of food, drugs and medical devices in Arab States to develop a realistic vision and solutions to the

common challenges facing these industries in the Arab states, and based on the recommendations of the 2nd Arab

Conference on Food and Drug… we hold the 3rd Conference on Food, Drug and Medical Devices. The Conference is

considered a transformative paradigm shift in addressing food, drug, and medical devices issues and in applying the

latest management principles and concepts to these three sectors, based on the importance of efficiently and

effectively managing the research, production, marketing and control aspects.

The conference is considered the largest Arab gathering which includes decision-makers, officials from

ministries and departments of pharmaceutical affairs and medical devices, directors of pharmaceutical

registration, food control bodies, nutrition centers and agricultural research centers from all the Arab States, as

well as the representatives of relevant international organizations and institutions, academia, researchers,

local and international food, drug and medical companies.


Perhaps one of the most strongly distinguishing feature of this Conference is holding - in addition to scientific

sessions and the accompanying exhibition - meetings between governments representatives in the fields of food,

drug and medical devices from diverse Arab states (G2G); meetings between governments representatives and

representatives of companies, manufacturers and business community (G2B); and meetings between companies

and business community (B2B) which will help open new horizons of cooperation, integration and partnership, in

addition to promoting trust among them.

In its endeavor to fulfill its mission, the Arab Administrative Development Organization holds this remarkable

Conference as well as other distinguished events with the aim of enhancing administrative development

throughout different sectors and services, including food and drug sectors that -if effectively managed-will

contribute to the safety and security of citizens, thus resulting in the abundance of resources which will promote

sustainable development in the Arab world.

Finally, I would like to express my deep thanks and gratitude to his H.E. Dr. Ahmed Emad Eldin Rady-the Egyptian

Minister of Health and Population- and H.E. Prof. Hisham Bin Saad Al-Jadhey-the Chief Executive Officer of the

Saudi Food and Drug Authority(SFDA)-for their fruitful efforts, support, and sincere cooperation in organizing this

Conference. I would like also to thank the General Secretariat of the League of Arab States (Health and

Humanitarian Aid Department), the Gulf Health Council for Cooperation Council States, the Egyptian National Food

Safety Authority (NFSA) and all participating parties.

Last but not least, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to all the members of the scientific and

organizing committees, the experts, and scholars who participate with research papers to enrich the conference

with their scientific and practical expertise, and to the representatives of the ministries and the participants from

all the Arab and foreign countries, as well as the sponsors and exhibitors.

May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.


After the success of two cycles of (Arab Food and Drug Conference), a third round of the matter is launched

under the name (future starts now) foreseeing a bright future for those vital sectors at all levels and fields, and

aspiring for more unified efforts and roles coordination to achieve full integration with all concerned public or

private sectors.

held in Sharm-El-Sheikh. It represents a fundamental pillar of the Council’s orientations towards supporting

this kind of scientific and professional conferences. The outcomes and recommendations will reflect positively

on various sectors within the Council including medicine group purchasing program and medicine and medical

device central registration. Besides, Committee of Nutrition and Micronutrient and Gulf Unified Strategy for

Food that lately resulted in Children Obesity Control Strategy. In addition, the support of health issues that
