Medical Cannabis In Peru

Medical Cannabis In Peru with Rafael Canovas Newell, Plena Global's Director of Government Affairs & Partnerships in South America. The government of Peru published the regulations that will govern both the application and production of medical cannabis inside the country. These regulations are among the most developed in any market globally, and enable Peru to position itself as a leading cultivator and supplier for the world market, while simultaneously providing effective, low-cost treatment to Peruvians dealing with a broad variety of conditions. In the lead-up to this historic announcement, Peruvian officials have been working with scientists, doctors, and the Canadian medical marijuana company Plena Global Holdings to ensure the country can benefit from an effective transition to a regulated industry that operates at the highest standards of medical cannabis regulation worldwide. The extended period of time between the signing of the law legalizing medical cannabis, and the adoption of the regulatory framework overnight, was effectively used by the government of Peru to ensure a thorough framework for industry operations was established.
