The Andalusian Regional Ministry of Health receives the AELMHU 2021 Honorary Award in Seville

The Regional Minister, Jesús Aguirre, received the award from our Vice-President, David Moreno, at the Orphan Drug Congress held in Seville. An award on behalf of the association and on the occasion of AELMHU's 10th Anniversary, which recognises the Andalusian Regional Government 's involvement with rare diseases, as one of the pioneering autonomous communities to create a regional strategy on rare diseases. In the same category, the association also presented the award to the Autonomous Community of Extremadura.

Through these awards, the association seeks to recognise and acknowledge the work of both clinicians and researchers, associations, media and public institutions in the fields of rare diseases and orphan drugs.

The deadline is currently open for all those individuals or institutions who wish to participate in any of the categories to submit their candidacy and thus be eligible for the AELMHU Awards 2022, which will be presented in November.
