From 7 to 9 June 2024, Brussels hosted the European Federation of Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis Associations (EFCCA) General Assembly, representing a significant event for our organisation.
This year the central theme for World IBD Day is "IBD Has No Borders", emphasising the global nature of IBD and the need for collective action. EFCCA organised a Round Table discussion titled "Uniting for access to IBD care" on 17 May 2024 in Mexico City.
We take great pleasure in informing you that EFCCA is one of the 12 partners coming from 9 countries of the consortium for the miGut-Health Project, which has been selected for European funding under the Horizon Europe framework. This project will strive to empower people living with IBD by creating state-of-the-art strategies for early disease prediction, prevention, and health monitoring. This will be achieved through data-driven approaches, personalised preventive interventions (such as nutritional changes), and innovative eHealth solutions.
