“The Access to Medicine Index is a very important project. What gets measured, gets done”
Dr. Margaret Chan, Director-General of the World Health Organization

“Effective medicines saves lives. Pharmaceutical companies play key roles in developing medicines and making them available to people who need them. The ATM Index shows how well companies are doing in contributing to better access to medicines and where they can do more to get better results for the poor.”
Andrew Mitchell, UK Secretary of State for International Development – DFID
