CSL Ltd Annual Report 2019

Bleeding disorders Empowering patient communities through education and advocacy The World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH) works to improve the lives of people with haemophilia and other inherited bleeding disorders. As a not-for-profit global network of patient organisations, WFH organises programs that help improve diagnosis and access to care for patients in developing countries, provides medical training, increases awareness, establishes education initiatives and achieves government support through advocacy. Support from longstanding industry partners, like CSL Behring, helps to deliver these important programs to patients, caregivers and healthcare professionals. In 2019, CSL Behring once again renewed its partnership with the WFH by entering into a fourth multiyear commitment to support critical WFH programs. Since being the first company to establish a multiyear agreement with WFH in 2009, CSL Behring has expanded its support in 2019 to become a Visionary Corporate Partner for another three years. This agreement establishes CSL Behring as a “Leadership Partner” of WFH’s Global Alliance for Progress (GAP) Program that aims to increase the diagnosis and treatment of patients with haemophilia and other bleeding disorders in developing countries. In 2018, CSL Behring’s product donations supported patients in Afghanistan, Angola, Armenia, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belize, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Congo-Brazzaville, El Salvador, Gabon, Guyana, India, Jordan, Kenya, Mali, Mauritania, Mongolia, Morocco, Nigeria, Philippines, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Togo, Uganda and Zambia.
