This article Includes List of Documents Required for Product Registration in WHO/UNICEF

What are the WHO/UNICEF ?

The World Health Organization (WHO) and United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) have established prequalification programs for the registration of pharmaceutical products.

The WHO Prequalification program evaluates the quality, safety, and efficacy of medicinal products, vaccines, and in vitro diagnostics. This program is designed to provide guidance to countries and organizations on selecting and procuring medicines that meet international standards.

The UNICEF Supply Division has established a similar prequalification program for vaccines, where they assess the quality, safety, and efficacy of vaccines before procurement by UNICEF.

The prequalification process involves a rigorous review of data from clinical trials, manufacturing processes, and quality control systems. Once a product is prequalified, it is listed on a public database and can be considered for procurement by UN agencies and other organizations.
