PART 2: The theme of the 57th IPSF World Congress Educational Symposium is “Mapping A New Vision: Translating Ideas into Practice”. This symposium aims at providing information on topics such as international pharmacy curricula, pharmacy practice in different countries, its advantages and disadvantages.
