The WHO’s Radiation Emergency Medical Preparedness and Assistance Network (REMPAN) was established in 1987 in order to fulfill WHO's mandate under the two international conventions on Early Notification and Assistance (IAEA, 1987).
The key purpose of the network is to support WHO’s work in assisting member states in building relevant national capacities for emergency medical and public health assistance to people over-exposed to radiation, as required by the International Health Regulations (2005). REMPAN’s scope also includes research and development of medical countermeasures against radiological and nuclear emergencies.
