This global survey initiative is open to anyone from any country in the world who is living with a rare disease, as well their family members and carers. The more people who respond and share their experiences, the more powerful our voice will be! All responses are anonymous and will be kept in secure storage only accessible to our research team.

How your voice makes a difference

Rare Barometer transforms your opinions and experiences about topics that directly affect you into facts and figures that can be shared with patient organisations, policy makers and the wider public, to drive real change for people living with a rare disease.


Our surveys


Inform policy and decision makers on what it really means to live with a rare disease

Actively involve patients in research on the topics that matter most to them

Create a cross-border community of people affected by a rare disease who act collectively to bring about change

Testimony

I was exhausted and overwhelmed in my role as a patient with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome-type 1, caregiver and advocate. The report of the Rare Barometer survey on the daily impact of rare diseases provided me with validation and a new frame of reference.

Testimony

I was involved in the diagnosis questionnaire since the beginning, which gave me the opportunity to contribute to the questions, and adapting them to the national context. This is important, because it will make people from my country feel more involved.

Testimony

We participated in the Rare Barometer survey on diagnosis and got great numbers that allowed us to analyse HHT replies from France, Germany, and Italy, and base our future actions on the needs that emerged from the survey. It was a roadmap that we didn’t have before.
