Welcome to Let's Talk MS, proudly presented by the European Multiple Sclerosis Platform (EMSP).

Today's conversation is a hot topic for young people living with MS and related conditions. According to the 2020 MS Barometer, only 48% of the estimated number of people living with MS were in employment across the 32 responding countries. This figure highlights the significant employment-related challenges faced by people with MS. NMOSD and MOGAD are also relevant to the topic of employment.

For this reason, we are excited to share more useful information with you on this topic, including good practices, how to deal with disclosure and other interesting questions and topics.

Alongside hosts Elisabeth Kasilingam and Anna Revilla, we are excited to introduce our guests:

• Graham Halsey, founder of Well Working Matters in the UK, a consultancy company in the area of absence management and return to work.

• Jade Bourion, a Young People's Network member, a consultant by profession, and a sports enthusiast.
