ENMB stands for the European Network of Mandatory Bloodbanks. It is an organization that promotes cooperation and the exchange of knowledge among national blood establishments in Europe. The network aims to ensure the safety and availability of blood products across member states. ENMB facilitates the harmonization of standards and practices related to blood donation, processing, and transfusion.

Key activities of ENMB include sharing best practices, organizing training sessions, and conducting joint projects. These initiatives focus on areas such as donor recruitment, quality control, and the management of infectious disease screening. The network also plays a role in responding to public health emergencies by coordinating blood supply during crises.

Membership in ENMB typically comprises representatives from national blood transfusion services and regulatory bodies. The organization works closely with European institutions, including the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA), to align its work with broader public health strategies. ENMB contributes to the development of European guidelines and recommendations concerning blood safety. Its overall objective is to strengthen the European blood supply system and ensure that patients receive safe and high-quality blood products.
