What is Europso?

Europso was founded in November 1988 and is a federation of psoriasis patients’ associations based in the geographic region of Europe. As an umbrella organisation operating within Europe, and as a Member of IfpA we have close ties to the worldwide psoriasis movements – the International Federation of Psoriasis Associations (IFPA), the United States-based National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) and to the Nordic Psoriasis alliance (NORDPSO).

Our vision

Europso is the strong-voiced ambassador and negotiator for psoriasis patient associations in Europe. Europso’s actions are directed especially towards the supra-national level of the health authorities and related organizations, the health professions, associations and companies, and the media.

Our mission

In order to attain our vision, our outbound mission is to raise awareness of the psycho-social, medical and financial needs of psoriasis patients, and influence political and administrative policy and decision makers.
