The global umbrella organisation for liver patient organisations, with patients always at the centre.

Founded in 2019, Liver Patients International (LPI) supports and advocates for liver patients in both policy and operational contexts, promoting equal access to effective liver healthcare services. We do that together with our members, over 15 patient organisations, and all stakeholders (scientific organisations, advocacy groups, pharmaceutical companies, and other related organisations).
We welcome all organisations as members or stakeholder who want to make a difference for all that they support.

Who we are

With a growing membership of more than 15 established liver patient organisations worldwide, from South America and Africa to Europe. LPI is overseen by a managing board whose members are each experienced representatives of patients’ organisations. Together, they bring expertise across a full range of liver diseases, organisational management, and governance.

What we do

We undertake activities to improve care and treatment for people affected by or at risk of a liver condition. We work in a progressive and collaborative way, ensuring meaningful engagement and partnerships with other stakeholders. We strengthen the (member) patient organisations’ guidance in policy, advocacy, and cooperation with stakeholders to reach the goal together. We participate in projects, scientific (EU) research programmes, and are involved in many policy and advocacy groups. We do that with expertise from all our members and stakeholders, through cooperation, information sharing, and mutual support.

Become a member or stakeholder

Together, we will be able to support, develop, and lead efforts to increase patient support and advocacy, playing a crucial role in shaping global health policy and strategies through partnerships.
We are open to registered NGOs and charitable organisations, regardless of size, that work in the field of liver disease.

But we also reach out to scientific, advocacy, and policy organisations, as well as pharmaceutical companies. LPI is open to strong collaboration with organisations that are not necessarily liver patient organisations but share our goals and ideals.
Membership is free of charge.
