Communities Coordinator Zürich

The European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) represents people with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases, health professionals, researchers and scientific rheumatology societies across Europe. EULAR is a non-profit association recognised under Swiss law, fostering a multitude of activities in areas of advocacy, education, congress, quality of care and research. Our mission is to reduce the impact of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases on the individual and society to improve the social position and the quality of life of people living with this disease.
