The 58th Congress

IPSF is the International Pharmaceutical Students’ Federation, which was found on 1949 by eight pharmacy student associations in London. The federation now represents around 350,000 pharmacy students and recent graduates in 84 countries worldwide. IPSF holds official relations with the world health organization (WHO) and operational relations with the united national educational-scientific and culture organization (UNESCO). IPSF also works in close collaboration with the international pharmaceutical federation (FIP).






EPSF was founded in 1982 as the national representative of all pharmacy students in Egypt and the head of all local scientific associations in the Egyptian faculties of pharmacy. In August 1982, in the 28th IPSF World Congress-Sweden, EPSF became a Full Member federation representing Egypt.
