Programs
Organizing Advocacy to Advance Patient-Centered Solutions
Across disease areas and regions, GAfPA programming responds to the most pressing issues in health policy. Through coalitions and initiatives GAfPA empowers stakeholders to advance patient-centered solutions and “Early is Better” health care.
Coalitions
GAfPA organizes and manages stakeholder coalitions to foster collaboration toward shared priorities. Coalitions serve as advocacy platforms that empower stakeholders to raise awareness and inform health policies.
The Global Alliance for Kidney Health envisions health care systems that treat chronic kidney disease as a public health priority. By ensuring at-risk patients can access comprehensive screening and early treatment, disease progression can be slowed and mortality prevented.
The Global Remission Coalition envisions health care systems that prioritize the pursuit of remission in chronic inflammatory conditions. Being in remission means patients can do more than just manage their symptoms; they can lead fuller lives.
The Partnership for Women’s Wellness’s mission is to ensure women’s wellness is a priority, not an afterthought. Through stakeholder collaboration, raising awareness, and policy engagement, PWW works to ensure prevention, screening and early treatment are accessible for every woman.
Initiatives
GAfPA develops advocacy initiatives focused on specific conditions and pressing policy issues to raise awareness of barriers to care and the value of a patient-centered approach.
The European Alliance for Patient Access produces programming that empowers stakeholders in the region to engage in national focused policy advocacy that addresses unmet needs through patient centered solutions.

GAfPA’s Blood Health initiative recognizes the burden of iron deficiency and anemia, especially for people living with chronic conditions, and asks health systems to prioritize blood health by increasing access to early screening and treatment for those at risk.
The Cardio-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Policy Forum recognizes that by prioritizing prevention and early detection in primary care, strengthening collaboration across specialties and ensuring timely access to treatment, health systems and policymakers can better address shared risk factors and reduce the rising burden of CKM conditions.
