WFH Advocates Global Health Equity for Hemophilia at WHO SEA Meeting
World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH), shared a post on LinkedIn:
“During the 78th Session of the WHO Regional Committee for South-East Asia (SEA/RC78) in Colombo, SriLanka, WFH Regional Manager Harshal Kale delivered a powerful statement calling for the effective procurement mechanisms to ensure equitable access to treatment for people with hemophilia and other Bleeding Disorders.
These remarks reinforced the importance of aligning with the 2025 WHO Essential Medicines List and the Delhi Declaration to improve access to essential medical products across the region and beyond.
Kale also voiced the strong support of the WFH for a WHA resolution on Global Action to Advance Health Equity for People with Hemophilia and Other Inherited Bleeding Disorders proposed for discussion at the 158th session of the WHO Executive Board and backed by several Member States including Armenia, Morocco, Nepal and Sri Lanka. The WFH also commends Nepal government for voicing their full support for this resolution in their statement at the SEA/RC78 meeting in Colombo.”
