CyFPA aims at supporting patients with a strong voice in the Cypriot community and ensuring that patients have access to holistic and equitable social health care, with quality and patient-centeredness. In this regard, Active Citizenship Network and the Cyprus Federation of Patients' Associations have welcomed the opportunity to collaborate to support each other’s initiatives on the empowerment and protection of patients, in particular those affected by chronic and rare diseases. Moreover, ACN and CyFPA will commit to raise awareness on the needs surrounding patient care and patients’ quality of life.
