MONTREAL, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On February 3rd, 2026, the Executive Board of the World Health Organization (WHO), in a landmark decision, approved a Member-State led resolution on Global Action to Advance Health Equity for People with Hemophilia and Other Bleeding Disorders, which will now be presented at the 79th World Health Assembly in May 2026 for final adoption. The World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH)—as a non-state actor in official relations with the WHO—has been advocating and strongly supports this resolution.
A World Health Assembly Resolution is an official policy document adopted by the WHO Member states to set global health priorities and policies, guide national health strategies and request specific actions from the WHO Secretariat. By adopting this resolution, the WHO and its Member States will recognize bleeding disorders as a priority and take critical step towards developing a coordinated global framework and concrete actions to address the health inequities affecting our community.
The WFH also launched a Global Call for Health Equity for Bleeding Disorders in support of its adoption. To find out more about the Global Call, read the announcement article on the WFH News page here. To watch the WFH statement urging the WHO Executive Board to adopt the resolution, click here.
About hemophilia and other bleeding disorders
In people with bleeding disorders, the blood clotting process doesn’t work properly, with the result that they can bleed for longer than normal, and some people may experience spontaneous bleeding into joints, muscles, or other parts of their bodies which can lead to developmental and permanent mobility issues.
