APBN Online

Established in 2006, the Asia Pacific Blood Network (APBN) promotes blood safety and efficiency of blood service operations among members. It encourages a close cooperative approach to advance regional harmonisation and co-operation in blood related matters. It does this with an appreciation that members operate in different domestic contexts.

The APBN provides a forum for members to exchange ideas and insights and compare operational practices. Supporting the principle of voluntary, non-remunerated blood donation (VNRBD), the APBN seeks to provide strategic leadership in the Asia Pacific region and to support policy development. The APBN provides a regional voice and perspective on blood-related themes.
