2000 Conference
From its inception, the SEAM Program has been dedicated to identifying measurable gaps in access to medicines and tracking the effect of strategies used to improve access. Toward that end, in December 2000, the World Health Organization (WHO) and Management Sciences for Health (MSH) held a Consultative Meeting on Defining and Measuring Access to Essential Drugs, Vaccines, and Health Commodities in Ferney-Voltaire, France.
