Global Action Network for Sickle Cell and Other Inherited Blood Disorders (GANSID)

The Gap: Whether operating in a low, medium, or high-resource environment, most advocates and organizations supporting individuals and families affected by inherited blood disorders are typically motivated by a personal connection to the disease. This ensures a passionate commitment, but may not provide access to the opportunities or resources needed for effective advocacy. With cross-disease collaboration, Inherited Blood Disorders serving organizations would be able to work together to reach and effectively advocate for more patients especially those living in low and medium-resource countries.

The Opportunity: The Global Action Network for Sickle Cell & Other Inherited Blood Disorders (GANSID) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, on January 18th, 2022 to unite the forces of organizations serving inherited blood disorders to better amplify their impact globally.
