Drawing on Europe-wide patient and carer surveys, ERDERA highlights how gender can shape diagnostic delays, care burden and the evidence base for rare-disease research.
European Parliament research service assessment, published in February 2026, identifies 31 measures that could form an EU rare disease action plan, highlighting European Reference Networks and cross-border collaboration including ERDERA as drivers of EU added value.
This study investigates possible measures that could be taken at EU level to address these challenges. It finds significant European added value in harmonising coordination and access across the 27 Member States, mainly in terms of improved diagnostic tools and availability of medical treatment, better health outcomes, particularly lower infant mortality, and improved well-being of family members and caregivers.
28 February, across Europe and beyond: one year into delivery, ERDERA is advancing towards shorten diagnostic journeys and improved therapies for people living with a rare disease.
