International Affairs

Welcome

Welcome to the AMCH Department of International Affairs.   Our department seeks to form partnerships with similar colleges around the world so that we can promote the growth of homeopathic medicine on a global scale.   We acknowledge that there is strength in numbers and hope to form a strong international network of practitioners and institutions. We welcome letters of introduction from homeopaths and healthcare centers in both developing and industrial nations, and look forward to learning from each other.   The Director of this Department is Dr. Lauri Grossman DC.  You may reach her at international affairs@AMCofH.org  

Non Governmental Organization Status

This recommendation is subject to the approval of the Economic and Social Council, which will consider and take action on the Committee's recommendation at its substantive session scheduled for late July 2013.
