The First International Meeting of Niemann-Pick Disease Non-Profit Organizations
October 2009
ScotlandThe First International Meeting of Niemann-Pick Disease Non-Profit Organizations was held in Scotland in October. The meeting was jointly organized and sponsored by the NNPDF and the Niemann-Pick Disease Group (UK).
Ten NPD advocacy groups from around the world were in attendance, with a focus on enhancing communication and collaboration among organizations supporting those with NPD around the world. The meeting allowed participants to explore ways to share information and to speed up progress in care and the understanding of Niemann-Pick Disease.
Such global collaboration helps maximize efforts and avoid duplication of work in good stewardship of hard-earned resources. This International Meeting marked an important advance in worldwide cooperation in the fight against NPD.
