@MATES4Kids Inaugural Activity Report

@MATES4Kids is a coalition of like-minded organisations and individuals committed to collaborative action aimed at identifying, implementing, and monitoring practical solutions to reduce the preventable mortality associated with childhood NCDs. With an initial focus on Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH), the most common adrenal condition of childhood, we are seeking to leverage achievements by the childhood cancer and Type 1 diabetes communities to achieve the ambitious goal of reducing the preventable mortality associated with CAH by 30% by 2030. We believe it is possible to achieve this through a rights-based commitment to: improving access to essential medicines; strengthening and developing the international CAH community; and scaling newborn screening (NBS).

This inaugural @MATES4Kids Activity Report (January 2022 to June 2023) details the foundational activities and structure of @MATES4Kids, as well as key achievements since the movement’s inception.
