In 2014, the Melanoma Research Foundation (MRF), in response to the global need for bringing the patient voice to the melanoma space, brought together organisations from around the world to create the Global Coalition for Melanoma Patient Advocacy.

The group has grown to include melanoma patient organisations from 27 different countries and is enthusiastically supported by its partners around the world, as well as the global patient, healthcare and pharmaceutical communities.

The Coalition meets the vital needs of the worldwide melanoma community through three working groups, which each specialise in a unique area that addresses globally relevant issues for melanoma patients, encompassing:

• Melanoma Awareness and Patient Resources
• Patient Advocacy and Access to Treatment
• Collaboration and Recruitment
