The event is in observance of World Accreditation Day on June 9.
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of JANAAC, Sharonmae Shirley told
JIS News that the forum will look at âthe changing face of cannabis in Jamaica and the role of accreditation as a safeguard for consumer health and well-beingâ.
She said that related policies will also be examined by participating panellists, alongside matters of regulation, civil society concerns and recommendations.
She said JANAAC believes that it is important to stage an event looking at accreditation as it relates to the cannabis industry, as it is a multibillion-dollar industry that has taken root in sectors including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods, and agriculture.
