At the 78th World Health Assembly, World Health Organisation Member States have officially adopted the first-ever Resolution on Rare Diseases — a landmark step toward greater equity and recognition for the 300 million people affected worldwide.
IRDiRC is proud to have played a role in this global achievement. This milestone reflects the strength of international collaboration and the commitment to leave no one behind in health policy.
We commend the leadership of Egypt and Spain, 41 co-sponsoring countries, and the 275 civil society partners who united to make this possible.
