Councils, Forums & Committees

Our Advisory Councils, Forums, and Committees bring together people with lived experience, researchers, clinicians, and leaders from member organizations around the world.

These volunteer groups provide expertise, strategic advice, and oversight that help shape the Alliance’s programs, priorities, and governance. Together, they strengthen global collaboration and support better outcomes for people affected by ALS/MND.
