In the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic and in line with WHO guidelines, the upcoming European Conference on Rare Diseases & Orphan Products (ECRD) will now take place online on 14-16 May.
The health and safety of all stakeholders participating in ECRD, including people living with a rare disease and their carers, is our primary concern.
EURORDIS-Rare Diseases Europe is keen to move the conference online in order to maintain the planned dates. As the EU shapes its future policy and spending frameworks for the coming decade, ECRD 2020 serves as an opportunity to co-create policy options today that can lead to a better patient journey for the years ahead.
