Mission

The Alliance for Patient-centred UTI Research (APUR) is a global collaborative working to improve the lives of people living with urinary tract infection (UTI) by advancing the understanding and management of UTI through patient-centred research and advocacy.

Purpose

APUR’s purpose is to raise awareness of and advocate for the advancement of research that contributes to the development of more effective testing and treatment options for all forms of UTI. The alliance strongly encourages authentic and meaningful patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) at all stages of research so that the patient perspective is given the weight it deserves. By combining skills, knowledge, resources, experiences and networks, and presenting a strong and united front on behalf of the global community, APUR works to ensure positive patient outcomes are the ultimate priority in all UTI research.
