SOCIETY INTRODUCTION

The Estonian Hemophilia Society was founded on November 7, 1992 in Tartu.
The association is a voluntary non-profit pan-Estonian association of people with hemophilia and other blood clotting disorders and their family members.
The activities of the association are based on self-initiative, members' self-government, joint activities and cooperation with the World Federation of Haemophilia and European Haemophilia Consortium.
The association is the legal successor of the Estonian Hemophilia Association registered in Tartu.

In the early years, the main task was to transmit information about hemophilia, because both patients and doctors had little knowledge, and there were also no coagulation factor concentrates. Now the situation has changed. Now you can talk about many things not only theoretically, but also practically implement them. Advances in the treatment of hemophiliacs are closely related to the development of the association.
