World Organization of Family Doctors
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from WONCA International Classification Committee)
The World Organization of National Colleges, Academies (Wonca) and Academic Associations of General Practitioners/Family Physicians or in short World Organization of Family Doctors is an international organization of national colleges, academies or organizations concerned with the academic aspects of general family practice. Wonca was founded in 1972.
While this odd acronym is hard to explain, especially in the context of its more modern formal name, the acronym has stuck.
Wonca is an affiliate organisation of the World Health Organization (WHO)
