Guidance And Tools To Support Patient Advocates To Take Action On The IFPA Forum Americas 2025 Roadmap

IFPA Americas Action Playbook

31 March 2025

By IFPA

In April 2025, stakeholders gathered in Bogotá for the IFPA Forum Americas. The Forum brought together stakeholders from the psoriatic community to promote regional action. The focus was on the Americas, but global representation gave the Forum an international perspective. Psoriatic associations, thought leaders, people living with psoriatic disease, civil society representatives, medical professionals, and private sector representatives collaborated to find ways to overcome gaps and discussed the need for new ways of working together.

The IFPA Forum has set the course, and it is now up to patient associations, other stakeholders involved in the cause, and people living with psoriatic disease, in every country, to implement the learnings from the IFPA Forum.

This Playbook offers practical assistance to advocates and members of patient organizations in their efforts to raise awareness and recognition of psoriatic disease as a significant health issue that requires enhanced treatment and care.

The Playbook:

  • Inspires action on the IFPA Forum Roadmap Americas recommendations
  • Provides quick and easy access to relevant tools and resources
  • Offers helpful guidance or advocacy tips

The IFPA Forum Roadmap Americas is a cross-sector collaborative effort that draws on insights and input from psoriatic disease patient associations, public health actors, and the pharmaceutical industry to formulate specific recommendations.
