RARE DISEASE DAY 2025: February 28th
Over 6000 rare diseases are characterised by a broad diversity of disorders and symptoms. The fact that there are often no existing effective cures adds to the high level of pain and suffering endured by patients and their families.
Rare Disease Day highlights opportunities to advocate for human rights at local, national, and international levels as we work towards a more inclusive society. It raises awareness for the 300 million people living with rare diseases around the world for whom we strive to achieve equitable access to diagnosis, treatment, health and social care, and social opportunity.
Rare Disease Day is a great example of how progress continues to be made. In 2008, events took place in just 18 countries; events are now held in over 100 countries.
