Leukämie-Online e.V. / LeukaNET (Germany)

Scope of organisation

Description

The internet platform www.leukaemie-online.de, operated by the non-profit, patient-led association LeukaNET e.V., is one of the most frequented internet platforms for leukemia patients and their relatives in Germany, Austria and German-speaking Switzerland. For many leukemia patients, our platform and the volunteer association behind it have served as a reliable knowledge platform and exchange opportunity for more than 20 years. Leukemia-Online is operated without commercial interest as an open and independent online community by patients for patients and relatives and without generous funding from cancer charities, the healthcare system or health insurance companies. With 3,400 registered participants, thousands of unregistered visitors and almost 40,400 contributions on around 4,700 topics, it has become an active information and communication hub for leukemia patients.
