Events happening for Thalassaemia Day
Angel123:
Hi Everyone,
I have been trying to do some research on events happening internationally for Thalassaemia Day. The only one I came up with is an Iron Warriors Contest which allows thalassaemia patients internationally up to age 16 to take part. Each entrant has to submit his/her drawing or painting and the best 12 submitted are compiled to make a thal calendar which is then circulated around the world.
Does anyone know of anything else happening?
thanks

Each year we have a thalassemia international conference in Cairo/Egypt that is held on the 8th and 9th of May. Most prominent professors are invited in this conference to discuss all topics related to thal

Thanks a lot for the information. I hope that there is more activity out there.
It would be fantastic if there is something happening in every country for that day, dont you think?
