Multiple Sclerosis International Federation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Multiple Sclerosis International Federation (MSIF) was established in 1967 as an international body linking the activities of national MS societies around the world.

The Federation seeks to work in world-wide partnership with Member Societies and the international scientific community to eliminate multiple sclerosis and its consequences, and to speak out globally on behalf of those affected by multiple sclerosis.

MSIF works to achieve this through the following key priorities:

  • International research
  • Development of new and existing societies
  • Exchange of information
  • Advocacy

Since establishment in 1967, MSIF has grown to link the work of 43 Member MS Societies worldwide. MSIF is in touch with many other emerging societies and aims to support all MS societies in their development.
