This unique event aims to:
  • Identify common conditions to facilitate increased uptake of therapies for rare diseases;
  • Build and seek convergence on current and emerging initiatives;
  • Recognise the need and nurture the willingness for flexibility within the healthcare system;
  • Discuss how to work together and where there are differences of opinion;
  • Investigate reasonable ways to resolve rare disease patient access issues in an equitable way for society and
  • Pave the way to a fair approach with acceptable compromises from each stakeholder.
This Symposium will build on elements from the 1st Multistakeholder Symposium. The dialogue will continue and we will work collectively towards a mutually-acceptable, fair and optimal approach forward.
