The Commonwealth Medical Association (CMA) was established in 1962,, at a time when an increasing number of Commonwealth countries were gaining their independence and overseas branches of the British Medical Association were being replaced by national medical associations (NMAs). The CMA’s constitution was later changed in 1989 with its main aim to strengthen the capacity of NMAs in developing countries to improve the health of their vulnerable and disadvantaged groups.
