The National Allergy Council is a partnership between the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA) and Allergy & Anaphylaxis Australia (A&AA), working in consultation with key interest holder organisations.
The National Allergy Council programs are overseen by an Advisory Committee which also comprises program Co-lead representatives from ASCIA and A&AA along with a representative from the National Allergy Centre of Excellence (NACE).
Why has the National Allergy Strategy become the National Allergy Council?
The National Allergy Council is a formalisation of the equal partnership between ASCIA and A&AA. The National Allergy Council will continue to progress the programs initiated under the National Allergy Strategy.
The National Allergy Strategy is the document which provides guidance on what work needs to be undertaken to improve the health and wellbeing of Australians living with allergic diseases including reducing the burden on carers, healthcare services and the community.
