EFA officially represents allergy, asthma and COPD patients in Europe. We are member of the most relevant EU official agencies to our disease areas: member of the European Medicines Agency Patients' and Consumers' Working Party (EMA PCWP) and official stakeholder of the European Food Security Authority (EFSA) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). At regional level, we are a founding member of the World Health Organisation Global Alliance Against Respiratory Diseases (GARD).
EFA is member of various organisations, including European Patients’ Forum (EPF, vicepresident), Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL, Executive Committee Board Member), European Network for Tobacco Control and Tobacco Control (ENSP), Global Allergy and Asthma Patient’s Platform (GAAPP, Board Member).
EFA develops and promotes long-term partnerships with healthcare professionals, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), the scientific research community and industry. Strong partnerships provide resources and allow for the distribution of workloads, while increasing the impact of work performing and building upon the successes of EU policy advocacy towards achieving major initiatives. With the concrete EFA EU policy goal of ‘European dedicated programs and/or plans for allergy, asthma and COPD’, maintaining well-defined conditions for partnership increases the effectiveness of these partnerships as an invaluable precondition for success.
In addition to our sustainable industry partnerships, EFA also enjoys partnerships with a variety of other organisations with expertise in a range of areas, including all partnerships established in the context of EU-funded projects.
