The Australian Summit to End Parkinson’s
This special event, hosted by the newly formed National Parkinson’s Alliance, will highlight the Parkinson's crisis unfolding globally and how urgent action is required to address the immediate and critical needs of people living with Parkinson's in Australia. With prevalence of Parkinson's estimated to double by 2040, Australia needs a plan to inform government strategy, policy and investment in prevention and research into treatments/therapies, cure and care in Parkinson's.
Government Budget Submission: National Parkinson’s Alliance Action Plan
This strategy to address the unmet needs of the Parkinson’s community will inform Federal and State government policy, strategies and initiatives in health, disability, aged care and research to ensure people living with Parkinson’s and their families receive fair and equitable access and benefit from strategic investment in research. This will support improved integration of the needs of the Parkinson’s community into current and future systems of support and care.
