On the 28th of February 2025 we celebrate the 18th Rare Disease Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about rare diseases and their impact on the lives of those affected, including approximately 30,000 people in Luxembourg. As every year, ALAN Maladies Rares Luxembourg, the non-profit organisation and national alliance representing people affected by a rare disease in the Grand Duchy, will launch several actions to increase awareness and understanding for these diseases, most of which are chronic, progressive and incurable.
