Bridging Innovation and Access at the WFH 2026 World Congress – South African Haemophilia Foundation
South African Haemophilia Foundation shared a post on LinkedIn:
”The World Federation of Hemophilia 2026 World Congress in Kuala Lumpur brought together over 1,900 delegates from 130 nations.
Representing SAHF was Sr. Tuswa, Mr. Sefojane, Prof. Joubert, Dr. Goga, Mr. Rayner and Mr. Fowles. We connected with a vibrant network of patients, healthcare professionals, researchers, policymakers, and industry leaders, all united by a common goal: enhancing access to diagnosis and care.
Key Takeaways from Congress:
- The unveiling of the PAIR Fund marks a pivotal leap toward equitable access and global innovation.
- Advancements in digital health continue to empower patient-centered care and facilitate real-time decision-making.
- There’s an increasing emphasis on aging populations, revealing new challenges as life expectancy climbs.
- Vital discussions on equity gaps, especially in LMICs, where diagnosis and access are still critically limited.
While we witness a surge in treatment innovation, we cannot ignore the stark reality: access remains inconsistent, and diagnosis is a fundamental hurdle.
The Congress underscored a powerful truth:
- Progress should be defined not only by innovation but by its accessibility to all.
SAHF is dedicated to amplifying the voices of our community, ensuring that global advancements translate into meaningful local impacts.”
