We are allergy, asthma and COPD patients whose diseases are affected by many aspects of life. As active citizens, our efforts are driven by our 2015-2020 EFA Strategic Objectives.
EFA’s 2017 achievements
We especially appreciated EFA’s advocacy work to include indoor air quality requirements in the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive because in Finland the indoor air problems are a wide and difficult problem and it concerns us all throughout Europe. EFA campaign was visible, concrete and easy to distribute/share with an interesting infographic.

#COPDMove was a brilliant and positive EFA project. We COPD patients must be thankful for the idea and for the dissemination of such a terrific achievement! Thanks EFA team!

For us the Meet and Greet the EU Training, focused on Health Technology Assessment, was the best EFA activity while the biggest achievement was #COPDMove, as there were real life patient examples from all European regions.
