ELPA - European Liver Patients Association
ROLE IN GENIAL
The European Liver Patients' Association (ELPA) plays a vital role in the GENIAL project by representing patient voices and addressing their unmet needs. As a patients' association, ELPA is dedicated to communication and dissemination, ensuring that the project's goals and findings are effectively conveyed to patient communities, civil society, and policymakers.
To achieve these objectives, ELPA will: organize laymen events communicating the project's impact in accessible language, making complex information understandable to a general audience, formulate recommendations aimed at addressing healthcare inequalities, ensuring that the project's findings lead to actionable changes, create informative videos where principal investigators (PIs) will explain the project in easy-to-understand terms through a series of videos, making scientific information accessible to a wider audience, represent the project at key European and international congresses, broadening the project's reach and impact and implement an outreach strategy which will maximize the project's impact by leveraging ELPA’s extensive online platforms for information dissemination. This strategy will utilize ELPA’s network for wider engagement and support, providing a diverse platform to amplify the project's impact across Europe through a network of 32 organizations from 25 countries. ELPA is also the leader of the “Understanding Inequalities in Access to Cancer Care in EU” Cluster, being part of the an umbrella EU Cancer Mission Cluster.
Through these efforts, ELPA will ensure that the GENIAL project reaches its target audiences and achieves its goals of addressing healthcare inequalities and improving liver health outcomes across Europe.
