Register for our live event: Bridging Borders – Global Voices from the World ME Alliance

Welcome to the World ME Alliance’s first event to share experience and learning in our work on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) worldwide. Join us on May 10th at 5pm BST (see below for local times) as we showcase the committed  work of non-profit organisations from around the globe, all building a #GlobalVoiceForME.

At this event, hosted by the World ME Alliance, we’ll take you on a journey across the globe,  highlighting the efforts of non-profit organisations dedicated to raising awareness, providing support, and advocating for change within the ME community.

Through a series of presentations and discussions, you’ll hear firsthand accounts of grassroots initiatives, and innovative advocacy campaigns aimed at breaking down barriers and amplifying the voices of those affected by ME.

Together, we’ll bridge borders, forge connections, and pave the way for a brighter future for people with ME.

Livestream Information: Register below to join us on Zoom. This event will also be livestreamed on our Facebook page, allowing individuals from around the world to tune in and join the conversation in real-time. If you can’t make it for the live broadcast, don’t worry! The event will be available to watch afterwards on Facebook and YouTube, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to learn from this valuable exchange of ideas.

Meet your hosts! Petr Homolka, a smiling white man from Czechia and Sian Leary, also smiling, a white woman from the UK.
