Flaminia Macchia

Flaminia Macchia joined the Eurordis team as European Public Affairs Officer, and works from Brussels. Her role is to increase Eurordis’ influence on EU policies and programmes by, in particular, collecting and analysing policy information, cultivating and expanding Eurordis’ relevant contacts and helping to diversify financial resources.
 
Flaminia holds degrees in Political Science and International Relations, with a specialisation in EU Institutions (Université Libre de Bruxelles; London School of Economics), and brings a decade of experience in EU affairs to her position at Eurordis. As a patient with the rare disease Colitis Ulcerosa, Flaminia has been active in the rare disease community in Europe and has a particular interest in public health issues. Eurordis’ pan-European perspective fits Flaminia naturally - a native Italian-French bi-lingual, she is at ease in four languages. Flaminia and her husband, a Danish national, have two children.
