    Rare diseases are not really rare -- over 300 million people worldwide are living with a rare condition. Nearly all of us will be touched in some way by a rare disease during our lifetime -- whether it affects ourselves, a family member, a friend, a co-worker or another member of our community. This week, Member States are consulting and negotiating on the #Resolution4Rare, calling for a Global Action Plan on Rare Diseases to ensure rare diseases are recognized and prioritized in health systems worldwide. The rare disease community has worked together to put rare diseases on the global health agenda. Now we have to ensure that Member States take up the challenge of ensuring that Persons Living with a Rare Disease have the resources they need to thrive. Please show your support for #Resolution4Rare by sharing this post!

  • 📢We are pleased to share that RDI Chair Kirsten Johnson will be a featured speaker at the REACT Congress and International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC) Conference. 📅 6 March, 14:30-17:30 CEST, Brussels 📍 Session "Mental health and rare conditions: an integrated approach to care and research" 💡 An integrated, holistic approach to care and research of rare conditions should address the whole person. EURORDIS announced their Mental Health and Wellbeing Initiative at the end of 2022, and early results from this work show the importance of: 🌟 Making psychosocial factors to quality of life a priority. 🌟 Recognizing the intersectional mental health needs of those living with rare conditions. 🧠 Poor mental health can affect access to: 🔹 Diagnosis 🔹 Care 🔹 Treatment 🔹 Clinical trials 🔹 Overall quality of life A systematic review has highlighted the impact of rarity and living with uncertainty, and the importance of psychosocial care that: ✅ Promotes self-esteem and inclusion ✅ Combats stigma and discrimination A relational approach that focuses on the whole family and caregiver network is essential to create the best environment for: ✔️ Efficacy of care ✔️ Quality of life over the life course 💬 Psychologically-informed medical care within multidisciplinary teams, with good communication and shared, person-centred decision making, is key. Celebrating the strengths of those living with rare conditions, while addressing their areas of need, can enable a fulsome quality of life for as long as possible. ➡️ Visit the REACT Congress website page: https://lnkd.in/dzprF6R #RAREvolution #REACTCongress2025 #RareDiseases #OrphanDiseases #IRDiRC #ERDERA

    👨👩👧 Families of children living with rare diseases often face the difficult decision to relocate in search of essential care and support. Meet Izyan, the mother of Eshal—a young girl living with chromosome translocation 17 and 2, who remains undiagnosed. 🌍Due to a lack of affordable healthcare, equipment, and educational support in Malaysia, Izyan’s family moved to the UK. This move, while necessary for Eshal’s care, has placed significant financial strain on the family. True Universal Health Coverage means that families shouldn't have to uproot their lives to access the care and services they need. 🏠Healthcare systems must be designed to deliver care to people living with rare diseases in their own communities, rather than expecting them to navigate fragmented systems in search of support.🏥🤝 We must ensure that People Living with Rare Diseases are included in healthcare and health financing. This is why we advocate for a WHA Resolution on Rare Diseases #Resolution4Rare—to guarantee that #UHC truly leaves no one behind. #UHCDay UHC2030 - Taking action for universal health coverage
