Inclusion comprises dimensions of: 1) Affordability, including procurement and pricing; 2) Access, related to distribution and supply chains; and 3) Quality, as it relates to standards, counterfeits and pharmaco-vigilance. Innovation, institutions and policies are cross-cutting themes that apply to factors on both the ‘competitiveness’ and ‘inclusion’ arms of the conceptual framework.application/pdfenSOCIAL INCLUSIONPHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRYPHARMACOLOGYACCESS TO MEDICINESTANDARDSLICENSINGREGULATIONCOMPETITIVENESSTECHNOLOGY TRANSFERSOUTH OF SAHARAAFFORDABILITYPolicy Brief
