Guided by its mission, CoRE contributes to improving patient access to health products, and enhancing regional health systems and health security.

The Centre’s mission is to establish regional platforms and networks to build competencies, enhance collaboration and promote thought leadership in innovative regulatory science and health systems policy within and among national regulatory agencies, industry, health ministries and academia. Since its inception, CoRE has organised and hosted many well-received key events advancing regulatory excellence and promoting regulatory innovation in ASEAN and Asia-Pacific. Increasingly, the Centre is gaining recognition as a neutral, academic convener of dialogues, seminars and roundtable discussions involving international thought leaders in health regulation and healthcare systems.

As a trusted partner within a wide collaborative network of international and regional regulatory authorities, industry, non-governmental organisations and academic institutions, CoRE actively coordinates and contributes to regional capacity building and systems strengthening initiatives.
