Abstract:

Despite the prevalence of viral hepatitis approaching half a billion people around the world and both, the rising death rates and transformative treatments of these conditions have not been prioritized accordingly on the global public health agenda. This presentation will speak a new model for multi-stakeholder innovation and collaboration to build and scale capacity and effectiveness of liver advocacy organizations, including better use of technology, borrowing lessons from other disease areas and social entrepreneurship.
