World Hemophilia Day 17th April

Welcome to mbctalk,

This year, the World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH) is focusing on reaching out and identifying new members of the bleeding disorders community. 

For many years, the WFH has supported outreach projects in different countries and conducted educational events for both lay and healthcare professionals in conjunction with our national member organizations (NMOs).

The WHD 2019 campaign will feature examples of WFH outreach initiatives such as organizing regional workshops, raising awareness of bleeding through media coverage or training health professionals, and collecting data. 

It will combine these examples with submissions from our community about outreach efforts in their own regions or ideas about what would be helpful for future initiatives.

Each year, numerous landmarks change their lighting to red, the color associated with awareness of bleeding disorders. National organizations, health treatment centers, patient groups, and their partners around the world conduct or get involved in media events, awareness campaigns, and special activities organized for the day.
