Our Values
We are a passionate and diverse group of advocates, supporting the rare disease communities and underrepresented groups. We have developed an inclusive and empowering community network where individuals, families, caregivers, and advocates come together to connect, support, and advocate for those underserved communities affected by rare diseases.
We have created a safe space in which we practice equality diversity and inclusion, using the FREDA Principles, also known as the Fairness, Respect, Equality, Dignity, and Autonomy Principles.
This provides a framework for promoting ethical and inclusive practices in research and data collection. These principles are particularly relevant when working with under-represented and under-served communities.
RareQoL learning is a new FREE platform for our members to be launched later this year.
Many of our community with lived experience are often being asked to be involved in focus or advisory groups. We want to offer our members a forum to be able to offered consultancy services.
