About The WHA Supporter Circle
The World Hepatitis Alliance (WHA) Supporter Circle is your way to demonstrate your commitment to hepatitis elimination!
The Supporter Circle officially aligns partners with WHA, a globally recognised, highly respected, patient-led organisation. It also brings partners closer to WHA’s membership network and helps deliver on their objectives through the reach, insight, resources, and tools that WHA is uniquely placed to provide.
To become part of the WHA Supporter Circle, organisations are asked to make an annual financial commitment to WHA at one of four levels of partnership (details outlined below):
Additionally, all partners in the Supporter Circle are asked to commit to: Do all they reasonably can to centre patient voices when decisions are being made that will impact them, recognising the key role people living with hepatitis and the organisations that represent them play in hepatitis elimination.

Working Together Toward a Future Free from Viral Hepatitis
Anu Osinusi
For decades, we’ve been committed to improving the lives of people living with viral hepatitis around the world. Yet, despite the progress made, much work remains. Achieving the World Health Organization’s goal of eliminating viral hepatitis as a public health threat by 2030 will require collective action — because no one can do it alone.
Reshaping the future of hepatitis care starts with strengthening health systems, advancing inclusive policies, and fostering a shared commitment to equitable access. It means listening deeply to the voices of those most affected and ensuring their needs are at the centre of every solution we pursue.
At Gilead, we believe partnerships, advocacy, and community engagement are essential to driving meaningful change. That’s why we’re proud to be a member of the WHA Supporter Circle — a role that reflects our dedication to empowering communities, connecting stakeholders, and co-creating solutions that reflect the lived experiences of people impacted by viral hepatitis.
This membership builds on our longstanding support of the WHA, including initiatives like the All4Liver grant, which supports innovative, community-led projects. By learning from those on the front lines, we can help dismantle barriers such as stigma and discrimination, and strengthen the partnerships needed to overcome them.
Together, we can accelerate progress toward a world free from viral hepatitis.
There is no time to waste.
AbbVie: Silver Circle 2025
