World Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation Organization (WCDGO) is the unified voice of people living with Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG). We are here to transform the world’s understanding of CDG and advocate for those living with CDG. WCDGO provides a strong common voice with governments, researchers, clinicians and industry to promote research, diagnosis, treatment and services for CDG.

WCDGO with our global CDG patient organizations, local patient advocates and related stakeholders, is leading the battle to improve the lives of people living with CDG and their family members. The World CDG Organization relies on the entire CDG community for its continued success.

WCDGO is led and operated by CDG & Allies Professionals and Patient Associations International Research Network (CDG & Allies PPAIN). CDG & Allies PPAIN is based at   NOVA School of Science and Technology (FCT NOVA. For more information visit FCT NOVA).
