A core goal of AMWA is to promote professional integrity in the field of medical writing. To help medical writers maintain high professional standards, AMWA now endorses:
The Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance (MEAA) Journalist Code of Ethics
The Joint Position Statement of the International Society for Medical Publication Professionals (ISMPP), the American Medical Writers Association, and the European Medical Writers Association (EMWA) on the Role of Professional Medical Writers in the development of medical and scientific publications.
Good Publication Practice for Communicating Company-Sponsored Medical Research: GPP3
*Translations of the Statement are available in French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Romanian, Spanish and Ukrainian: www.emwa.org/about-us/position-statements/joint-position-statement-for-professional-medical-writers
