Each May, people living with food allergy all over Europe are organizing the Food Allergy Week. During the week, several initiatives and activities are carried out by individuals and patient organisations to increase public awareness on the topic.
Social media filter created by food allergic children
For the 2020 Food Allergy Week, EFA Member Food Allergy Italia was initiating a social media campaign, encouraging followers to accompany their social profiles with a predesigned filter. The social media filters have been designed by food allergic children and were aiming at showing solidarity for people living with food allergy.
The campaign was further supported by recently published scientific articles, infographics and practical and educational information on management of food allergy.
