Expert
Advisory Panel (EAP)
An expert advisory panel (EAP)
consists of experts from whom the Organization may obtain technical guidance
and support on a given subject, either by correspondence or through meetings
to which the experts may be invited by WHO. Any person possessing qualifications
and/or experience relevant and useful to the activities of the Organization
in a field covered by an established EAP may be considered for appointment as
a member of that panel, after consultation with concerned national
authorities, i.e. MoH&FW in the case of India.
WHO encourages developing
countries in all regions to send nominations for these panels.
Selection is based on an expert's
technical ability and experience. A maximum term of up to four years is
given at a time. The WHO Director-General may renew the term when such
renewal is warranted by specific programme
requirements.
