Australian Bleeding Disorders Conference

Haemophilia Foundation Australia invites you to be part of the 2025 Australian Bleeding Disorders Conference, where the community, health professionals, policy makers and industry come together to drive change and improve lives.

This year’s theme, Teamwork – Pushing the Boundaries, highlights the power of collaboration in advancing care, treatment, and support for people living with a bleeding disorder. By working together we can break down barriers, share knowledge, and explore new possibilities for better health outcomes.
