For the first time ever, liver disease has been formally recognised by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a global non-communicable disease priority. The decision places liver health firmly on the global health agenda and calls on governments to improve prevention, early diagnosis and access to treatment.

This landmark decision is a major step forward for everyone affected by liver disease. We have long campaigned for greater recognition of liver disease, so we're delighted to see this important breakthrough. It sends a clear message that liver health can no longer be overlooked.
