This year’s world Rare Disease Day takes place on 28 February 2021. To mark the occasion, thousands of events are being organized across the world with the common objectives of raising awareness about rare diseases and connecting patients, their relatives and all other stakeholders involved in the field of rare diseases. In Switzerland, the RDAF gathers stakeholders from the industry, patient organizations, healthcare professionals and research organizations to raise awareness about rare diseases, foster dialogue and define common solutions for action. To this end, the RDAF leads and moderates multi-stakeholder events and conducts a wide range of activities to foster development and access to treatment in Switzerland, which is key to improving the lives of patients with rare diseases.
