International activities

As an internationally-respected regulator, the TGA is involved in many activities with overseas organisations.

International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA)
The ICMRA is an entity that provides direction for a range of areas that are common to many regulatory authorities' missions. The ICMRA identifies areas for potential synergies among regulators, and facilitates, where possible, international leveraging and resource savings by building confidence and deeper collaboration among regulators.
International Generic Drug Regulators Programme (IGDRP)
The International Generic Drug Regulators Pilot (IGDRP) was created to promote collaboration and convergence in generic drug regulatory programs for regulatory agencies from a number of different countries
International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF)
The International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF) is a forum for discussion of future directions in medical device regulatory harmonisation
Australia, Canada, Singapore, Switzerland Consortium (ACSS)
The Consortium was formed in 2007 by 'like-minded' regulatory authorities to promote greater regulatory collaboration and alignment of regulatory requirements.
