Lisa currently serves as the Vice President of Community Engagement, and particularly focuses on advocacy, education, and capacity building. While addressing the 40th anniversary of the Orphan Drug Act (ODA) and of the foundation of NORD as an organization, we specifically tried to answer the question: \u201cWhat does equity mean for people living with a rare disease?\u201d We also looked at what should be done to actually achieve this equity in education, the workplace, and everyday life. Last but not least, we had a closer look at NORD\u2019s plans for Rare Disease Day 2023. For more podcast episodes from Karger visit karger.com\/podcasts.
