Shimels Tessema, Fellow in Pediatrics Hematology and Oncology at Addis Ababa University, Member of LOC for SIOP Africa 2028, shared on LinkedIn:
“Today people living with bleeding disorders and care givers Celebrate a landmark achievement!
Just yesterday ,May 21, 2026, the 79th World Health Assembly (WHA) unanimously adopted a resolution on Global Action to Advance Health Equity for People with Hemophilia and Other Bleeding Disorders.
This is a historic development for the community and will contribute to increasing the diagnosis and level of care for people with inherited bleeding disorders around the world.
By adopting the WHA resolution on Global Action to Advance Health Equity for People with Hemophilia and Other Bleeding Disorders, the WHO and its Member States (national governments) are elevating bleeding disorders on the global health agenda and are recognizing the need for strengthened global coordination and sustained policy action to address the health inequities affecting our community.
The World Hemophilia Federation call upon the WHO and all Member States to support effective implementation of this resolution to translate this political commitment into real-world impact for all people living with bleeding disorders across the globe.”
