European Medical Writers Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The European Medical Writers Association (EMWA) was founded in 1989 as a professional organisation for European biomedical communicators, whether working freelance or in-house at pharmaceutical companies or medical communications companies. Its head office is in Zug, Switzerland.
Since 1999, EMWA has offered an accreditation scheme, the EMWA Professional Development Programme (now available at foundation and advanced levels), through participation in training seminars held at its annual conferences. It also publishes a newsletter, The Write Stuff, three times a year.
The society has over 550 members drawn from 24 countries.
