WHO is pleased to partner and collaborate with AAPSPGHAN to distribute the survey to nominated paediatric hepatology/gastroenterology contacts (and alternates) across the regional network of paediatric transplant centres and paediatric intensive care/liver failure units. The World Health Organization will be working with 7 global/regional organisations (ILTS, NASPGHAN, APPSPGHAN, ESPGHAN, PASPGHAN and CAPGHAN, ALEH) to distribute the survey. The deadline is 30 July 2022.
