The ECPG is a network of motivated young pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists within FIP. The group was officially established in 2001, but early career pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists have been a part of FIP for many years. Our objectives are to facilitate connections and networking so that new ideas can be shared, and to open doors to information and new possibilities. The mission of ECPG is to promote the goals of FIP by encouraging the early career members of the Federation to participate in FIP projects and activities. In so doing, ECPG aims to develop individuals who can act as agents of positive change at local, national, and international levels, both in the profession and in society. ECPG’s goal is to connect our members and foster leadership within FIP’s eight different sections that focus on pharmacy practice, and the different special interest groups (SIGs) that focus on pharmaceutical sciences. Many of our ECPG members are already active in FIP’s Boards, sections and special interest groups. We also aim to support early career pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists from around the globe who have limited resources either for professional organisation involvement or for their own research
