JARDIN: General Presentation
The 24 European Reference Networks (ERN) are
multinational networks of highly specialized healthcare
providers
(HCP) across Europe in thematically coherent medical domains, addressing rare or low-
prevalence complex diseases requiring exceptional concentration of expertise and resources.
In this project, we aim to
enhance the impact of the ERN
even further by addressing all aspects of their
better integration into healthcare systems in member states :
•
Improving national governance of ERN-HCP
, quality assurance models, patient pathways and ERN
referral systems
•
Supporting the formation of national reference networks
and undiagnosed diseases programs or
equivalent strategies interlinked with ERN
•
Improving data management
, aiming to finally achieve full interoperability of regional, national and
European health data sources
•
Identifying national support options
for ERN-HCP
A focus will be to ensure the
sustainability
of the proposed actions and implementations, which we
propose to integrate into updated
national plans and strategies for rare diseases
in all member states.

This project aims to improve the integration of European Reference Networks (ERN) into healthcare systems across member states, focusing on governance, quality assurance, patient pathways, and data management. By supporting national networks, implementing interoperable data sources, and ensuring sustainability, the initiative seeks to enhance the impact of ERNs in addressing rare diseases effectively.

FAIR Principles Lack of political interest about rare diseases fields Better coordination national and EU levels: new health and research projects together ? Work in silos EU RD Action Plan Lack of sharing views between health and research Smooth data management system Reinforce dissemination in 27 EU countries Lack of professionals : ex. bioinformaticians Empower Rare diseases community
