European Liver Screening Week 2024

European Liver Screening Week 2024

The European Liver Screening Week 2024, held from September 30 to October 4, 2024, marked a significant step forward in raising awareness about liver health across Europe.

Organised by the European Liver Patients’ Association (ELPA) together with ELPA members from France (SOS hepatites) and the UK (Liver4Life), under the Patronage of the European Parliament, this impactful event brought together healthcare professionals, patient organisations, civil society organisations, and policymakers in a united effort to promote early detection of liver disease. Through free liver health screenings, educational materials, and a questionnaire about liver health, the initiative empowered individuals to take control of their liver health and encouraged policymakers to prioritise preventive actions. The success of the European Liver Screening Week 2024 underscored the critical role of awareness and collaboration in combating liver disease. ELPA extends its gratitude to all partners, healthcare providers, and volunteers who made this initiative possible.
