The website provides information on pediatric rheumatics diseases, the list of pediatric rheumatology centres and the list of family help association. The website has been enriched and updated thanks to a project called SHARE, “Single Hub and Access point for paediatric Rheumatology in Europe”, a European project whose main objective is to improve the quality of care of patients suffering from Paediatric Rheumatic Diseases. In addition, organisations are invited to attend the annual PRINTO workshop held each year at the PRES scientific meeting |
