#LetsTalkCRS

EUFOREA is pleased to announce the 4th edition of the Global CRSwNP (Nasal Polyp Syndrome) Awareness Day, which will be held on Thursday, 24 April 2025, in Brussels, Belgium, with the theme ‘New Ambitions of Care’. This year's focus is on creating essential conversations between patients, healthcare professionals, and policymakers to push for more ambitious care pathways and provide hope for patients to achieve remission. This year's edition is supported by 20 academic and non-profit partners, joining forces to highlight this under-recognized condition.

With the recently launched Patient Portal, EUFOREA empowers patients around the globe with access to trustworthy and comprehensive information. Several modules guide the reader through unbiased materials developed by international experts. The Patient Portal provides practical tools for patients to optimally prepare for their consultations, to assess the impact of symptoms on their daily lives, and to improve therapy adherence overall.

This year's Awareness Day will feature two high-profile panel discussions:

• A Patient Panel bringing together patients living with Nasal Polyp Syndrome to talk about the most urgent needs that aren't being met in their care. The panel will work to pinpoint the most important priorities that healthcare providers and policymakers need to address.
• An Expert Panel bringing the perspective of world-leading experts in ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat), and pneumology, the early-career perspective of residents-in-training, and the health policy perspective from the Belgian National Institute of Public Health (Sciensano). The panel will discuss how to turn the "New Ambitions of Care" into practical plans for helping patients and paving a pathway to remission.
