European Liver Patients’ Association – ELPA shared a post on LinkedIn:

“UNITED FOR CHANGE

From cutting-edge EU-funded research to cross-border collaborations, Europe is leading the way. Together, we’re turning liver cancer from a public health challenge into a story of hope, resilience, and victory. ELPA president Marko Korenjak.

The Fight Against Liver Cancer Starts with YOU!

PREVENTION SAVES LIVES

Liver cancer often lurks in silence, but together, we can break that silence and save countless lives. This October, we’ve proven that awareness, action, and advocacy are our most powerful weapons.

SCREENING IS POWER

Early detection isn’t just an option—it’s a Game Changer. Tackling hepatitis B, C, and D, reducing alcohol misuse, and addressing metabolic conditions like MASH MASLD, and Rare Liver Diseases are steps toward a future free from liver cancer.

Prevention isn’t a cost; it’s the best investment we can make for Europe’s health.

“This October and November has been an extraordinary journey of raising awareness, building partnerships, and advocating for the health of every European. Liver cancer is preventable, treatable, and beatable—but only if we act together. ELPA is committed to fighting for better policies, access to care, and resources that empower individuals and communities to take charge of their health.”

THE TIME TO ACT IS NOW

Let’s transform this momentum into lasting change. Advocate for screening programs.

Share this message. Inspire your community.

Together, we are unstoppable.

A HEALTHIER FUTURE STARTS TODAY

This is more than a campaign—it’s a movement. Together, let’s build a Europe where liver cancer is no longer a threat but a challenge we overcame.

Together, We Rise. Together, We Prevail. Together, We Save Lives.”
