iCAALL

Hundreds of millions of people in the world suffer from allergies, and it is estimated that 300 million have asthma. Inadequate or improper diagnosis and treatment of these chronic diseases and of immunodeficiency disorders results in lost productivity and substantial medical and socioeconomic burdens throughout the world.

Recognizing a lack of consensus-driven information and general recommendations, four of the most influential allergy/immunology professional organizations have joined forces to launch the International Collaboration in Asthma, Allergy and Immunology (iCAALL).

Participating in iCAALL are the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (ACAAI), the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) and the World Allergy Organization (WAO).
iCAALL is designed to collect and disseminate consensus-driven information about allergies, asthma and immunological diseases. Communicating this knowledge can positively impact diagnosis and treatment, as well as cost containment and policy decisions.

European Chronic Disease Alliance (ECDA)
EAACI became a member of the European Chronic Disease Alliance (ECDA) in February 2014 and attended the first EU Summit on Chronic Diseases from 3 - 4 April.
The ECDA represents an unprecedented alliance of 11 not-for-profit European organisations representing over 100,000 health professionals and patients. They have joined forces to put the case for immediate political action to reverse the alarming rise in chronic diseases which affects more than a third of the population of Europe - over 100 million citizens.

European Medicines Agency (EMA)

EAACI became eligible to be involved in the European Medical Agency's (EMA) activities in April 2014 and was added to the list of healthcare professional's organisations which is published on the agency's website.

The link to the list of eligible organisations is intended for patients and healthcare professionals who may have a question related to a specific disease/illness and who could then contact the relevant organisation(s) who work with the EMA.
