Respiratory diseases remain a leading health burden across Europe, yet national strategies are often fragmented or absent. The International Respiratory Coalition's Lung Facts platform offers a comprehensive, up-to-date resource for epidemiological and economic data for major respiratory conditions across 53 European countries. This viewpoint outlines the platform's development and the types of data available, including disease burden, societal costs and risk factor attribution. It also demonstrates how national coalitions are using it to advocate for respiratory health policies. By providing accessible, country-specific information in visual formats, Lung Facts supports benchmarking, evidence-based advocacy and planning of national respiratory strategies. The platform is a dynamic tool intended to strengthen respiratory health policy and empower stakeholders to act on the growing burden of lung disease.
