Join us for the special campaign'Hug for Rare'that we are organizing for International Rare Disease Day on February 28! This campaign aims to raise public awareness about the challenges that people living with rare diseases and their families face every day.

Rare diseases are often invisible, and societal support is crucial for improving the quality of life of those affected. That’s why we invite you to join our symbolic embrace of support, solidarity, and understanding.

How Can You Get Involved?

From February 17 to 28, take a photo of a hug with your loved ones, tag it with the hashtag #HugsForRare and share it on social media.

Join us at the final event on Cvjetni Square in Zagreb on February 28 at 12 PM, where we will mark International Rare Disease Day together through community gathering, music, and sharing symbolic hugs to send a message of solidarity and unity.

Share information about the campaign so that more people can learn about the challenges faced by those living with rare diseases

Support the rare! Your hug can make a big difference!

The campaign is supported by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Croatia, the City of Zagreb, and Biogen.
