A truly global campaign
A patient-led campaign, Rare Disease Day was launched by EURORDIS and its Council of National Alliances in 2008 and brings together millions of people around the world in solidarity.
EURORDIS leads the global community in organising Rare Disease Day, which takes place on the last day of February each year to raise awareness of the impact that rare diseases have on an estimated over 300 million people around the world.
This year’s slogan is ‘Show Your Rare, Show You Care’ and the theme is ‘Bridging health and social care’; Rare Disease Day 2019 is an opportunity to be part of a global call on policy makers, healthcare professionals, and care services to better coordinate all aspects of care for people living with a rare disease.
