Hassan Raza: Global Advocacy for People With Bleeding Disorders Must Continue Beyond Adoption
Hassan Raza, Vice President at Hemophilia Foundation, Pakistan, shared on LinkedIn:
“I am deeply moved to see the formal adoption of this landmark resolution on Health Equity for PwH by the Committee at the 79th World Health Assembly in Geneva.
This historic achievement represents the first-ever dedicated World Health Organization (WHO) framework for the community. This would not have been possible by the incredible work done by Cesar Garrido, Salome Mekhuzla, Rana Saifi, Harshal Kale and so many others who have been consistently advocating on our behalf across regions!
It is a monumental step toward dismantling the diagnostic gaps, gender disparities and treatment inequities that have left an estimated 75% of people with bleeding disorders worldwide without adequate care.
Congratulations to World Federation of Hemophilia and the tireless global advocates whose years of dedication made this blueprint a reality!
The advocacy does not stop at adoption but would begin for all NMOs from here. Now we all must commit at our NMO level to the vital work ahead and this shall help pave way for further dialogue with the government.”
