SUMMARY:RareKids-CAN: Logistics of ATMP Workflows for Pharmacy Teams
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will provide a practical\, high-level overview of how pharmacies handle Advanced Therapeutics Medicinal Products (ATMPs). ATMPs\, such as gene therapy products\, significantly differ from the traditional therapies (i.e.\, small molecule drugs\, biologics\, etc.). Therefore\, pharmacies require tailored workflows from the initial storage\, documentation and handling\, \, as well as chain-of-custody consideration.

SUMMARY:CORD: Webinar 1 : How Readiness Is Built: Lessons from Canadian Rare Disease Pathways
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Drug Access: Building End-to-End Readiness for Phase 2 of Canada’s Rare Disease Drug Strategy As Canada moves toward Phase 2 of the Rare Disease Drug Strategy\, what can we learn from Phase 1\, and what needs to be strengthened? This webinar will explore end-to-end readiness through Canadian experiences with hemophilia\, thalassemia and sickle cell disease\, examining diagnosis\, specialist care\, access to therapies\, disease management and patient support. We will consider what these experiences can teach us about the capabilities Canada needs to build and sustain as new rare disease therapies emerge.

SUMMARY:Rare Diseases International: Innovative Financing for Rare Diseases: From Concept to Implementation
DESCRIPTION:This final webinar focuses on what it takes to move from models on paper to solutions that work in practice. It will look at feasibility\, governance\, stakeholder alignment\, and the concrete pathways countries and funders can use to adopt and sustain these mechanisms. The discussion will pay particular attention to how innovative financing can support the integration of rare diseases into Universal Health Coverage frameworks and long-term national strategies\, and to the realities of low- and middle-income settings where financing gaps are most acute.

SUMMARY:CORD Webinar: Building the Baseline: How Does Canada Measure Up in Terms of Rare Disease Readiness?
DESCRIPTION:Join CORD for an interactive 60-minute indicator lab exploring how Canada can measure progress in rare disease readiness. Together\, experts and participants will examine and rate key policy and delivery indicators to identify what matters most\, where data gaps exist\, and what a national readiness baseline could look like. This session focuses on building a Canada-wide picture of rare disease readiness\, not ranking provinces. Participants will help identify promising examples and shared opportunities for improvement as CORD develops a national readiness indicator inventory.

SUMMARY:Rare Diseases International-Innovative Models Reshaping Access to Diagnosis\, Treatment and Care - Practical examples and global case studies
DESCRIPTION:Scientific and medical advances in rare diseases continue to accelerate — but equitable access to diagnosis\, treatment\, and care remains out of reach for millions of people living with a rare disease. \nThis webinar offers a practical look at how innovative financing models can help close these gaps. The session will explore a range of financing mechanisms\, including venture philanthropy\, blended finance\, public-private partnerships\, solidarity funds\, and outcome-based models. Through real-world examples\, participants will gain insight into what makes these approaches work\, the conditions needed for success\, and how models can be adapted or combined across different health systems.
