  3. SOME SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT TO TRAMIL University of Antilles / Guyane - Guadeloupe Autonomous University of Santo Domingo - Dominican Republic Central University of Venezuela University of Antioquía (Medellin) - Colombia Universities of Haití, Panamá, Costa Rica, Honduras University of San Carlos - Guatemala State University of Campinas, São Paulo - Brasil National Autonomous University of León - Nicaragua Ministry of Health and Health Faculty - Cuba Botanical Garden Dr. Rafael M. Moscoso – Dominican Republic Scientific Research Center of Yucatán - Mérida, México L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  4. Goals and objectives of TRAMIL (2002 - 2004) Scientific validation of traditional health practices based on criteria for safety and efficacy Assessment of the conservation status and development of in-situ and ex-situ management strategies for medicinal plants in selected sites of the Caribbean Basin Contribution to the development of national health and education policies, and primary healthcare delivery that integrates safe and effective traditional remedies L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  5. IMPACT Fac. Med. Dr. S. Allende, Pharmacology, Habana, Cuba. RESEARCH: for example: SCIENTIFIC WORSHOPS: for example: TRAMIL 10 CLAYTON, Canal Zone PANAMA, March 2001 L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  6. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES RELATED WITH THE SUSTAINABLE USE AND CONSERVATION OF MEDICINAL PLANTS Implementation of national and regional Conservation Assessment Monitoring Plan exercises for the selected plants Development of community-based conservation and management plans for vulnerable species Establishment of experimental gardens for conservation and cultivation of medicinal plants, and support for home gardens L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  7. OTHER SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES AND EXPECTED OUTPUTS OF THE TRAMIL PROGRAM - Incorporation of the Caribbean Pharmacopoeia in primary healthcare programs. Preparation of updated English, Spanish and French versions of the document- Dissemination of information through community education and public awareness programs using radio, didactic manuals, newspapers, video, posters, electronic forum and Web pages - Evaluation of the legal status of traditional remedies in national health systems and promotion of national legislation to protect biodiversity property rights L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  8. IMPACT

  9. New plants in the second Edition Lippia dulcis Lippia graveolens Melampodium divaricatum Mirabilis jalapa Nasturtium officinale Nerium oleander Neurolaena lobata Ochroma pyramidale Ocimum micranthum Ocimum minimum Ocimum sanctum Parthenium hysterophorum Pimenta ozua TOX Allium cepa Cassia fistula Chamaesyce hirta Eclipta erecta Euphorbia heterophylla Gliricidia sepium Gossypium barbadense Heliotropium indicum TOX Hura crepitans TOX Ipomoea batatas Lippia alba L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  10. TRAMIL survey particularities TRAMIL analysis system does not rest only on the qualitative, but also on the quantitative approach. The primary tool of the analysis is participative ethnopharmacological survey. Its starting point is not in the plants but in the health symptoms or problems. TREATMENTS USED FOR: (local name of the problem) · Illness description: · First treatments (the last time the problem has come out): ___ traditional plants ___ healer ___ medical officer ___ witch doctor · Description and way of preparation of the remedy: . Etc...

  11. IMPACT Setting technical guides for the culture of Caribbean medicinal plants

  12. TRAMIL PROGRAM: enda-caribbean/UAG SOMEANSWERS TO F A Q

  13. TRAMIL is not: ...related to any international pharmaceutical company ...a profit making program ...self sustainable at present ...only scientific research L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  14. TRAMIL is not: …ethnomedicine or ethnobotany (but applied ethnopharmacology) …expandable out of a uniform regional ecological context ...limited to any particular ethnic group ...exhaustive (it only deals with the most common health problems) L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  15. TRAMIL is not dealing with: …identification of active molecules …new medicines (new drugs) …industrial production …taking advantage of the knowledge of traditional healers …solutions for very serious and complex health problems …the preparation of an analytic vegetal pharmacopoeia properly speaking. L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE

  16. TRAMIL could collaborate for *an ethnopharmacological survey using the TRAMIL specific quantitative methodology *a specific vegetal Pharmacopoeia *a guide for cultivation and conservation of medicinal plants *integration of scientists in regional french & spanish speaking network L. GERMOSEN-ROBINEAU & S. LAGOS-WITTE
