SUMMARY:Rare Diseases International-Global Perspectives on Rare Disease Centers: What We Learned from Case Studies
DESCRIPTION:Join RDI for a public webinar exploring how rare disease centers are organized and how they function in practice across different countries and health system contexts. Rare disease centers play a critical role in improving diagnosis\, care coordination\, research\, and access to treatment for people living with rare diseases. Yet\, their structures\, levels of recognition\, funding models\, and integration into national and international networks vary widely. To better understand this diversity\, Rare Diseases International (RDI) conducted a series of qualitative case studies of selected rare disease centers worldwide. This public webinar will present key insights from the case studies. Through a panel discussion with representatives from participating centers\, the session will reflect on shared enablers and barriers and highlight practical lessons learned.
