Pharmaceutical education and science in the Eastern Mediterranean region (EMR) are at a pivotal stage of transformation, driven by the region’s diverse needs, evolving health priorities, and the pressing demand for a skilled pharmaceutical workforce. To support this reform, FIP, through the UNITWIN Network on Global Pharmacy Education Development and in collaboration with UNESCO, is launching the FIP-UNESCO UNITWIN Centre for Excellence in the EMR. Building on the lessons and impact of the 2025 FIP-UNESCO UNITWIN Strategic Insight Board report (https://www.fip.org/file/6324) and aligned with UNESCO’s 2023–2027 agreement. This CfE will serve as a regional hub for FIP’s Academic Institutional Members (AIMs), uniting partners to strengthen pharmacy education and science as a tool to advance practice, improve health outcomes, and promote sustainable workforce development across the region.
