SUMMARY:Wereld Zoönosen Dag / World Zoonoses Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Een zoönose is elke ziekte of infectie die van nature overdraagbaar is van gewervelde dieren op mensen. \nDieren spelen dus een essentiële rol bij het in stand houden van zoönotische infecties in de natuur. Zoönosen kunnen bacterieel\, viraal of parasitair zijn of onconventionele agentia omvatten. Zoönosen zijn vaak diersoortspecifiek en hebben meestal consequenties voor de volksgezondheid. Het woord zoönose is afgeleid van de Griekse woorden zoön (dier) en nosos (ziekte). Veel fulminant  (levensbedreigend) verlopende infectieziekten zijn zoönosen\, daar deze bacteriën\, protozoa\, virussen of wormen vaak zijn aangepast om in hun specifieke gastheer te overleven zonder al te veel schade aan te richten\, maar deze bij andere gastheren een heftige immuunreactie oproepen. Het verschijnsel waarbij menselijke aandoeningen worden overgedragen op dieren\, wordt antroponose genoemd. \nLinks:\nWorld Zoonosis Day 6 July

SUMMARY:Hinder en slaapverstoring van vliegtuiggeluid in 2024 - publicatie
DESCRIPTION:Het Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu (RIVM) publiceert het onderzoek ‘Hinder en slaapverstoring van vliegtuiggeluid in 2024. Blootstelling-responsrelaties voor burgerluchthavens en militaire luchthavens in Nederland‘ over de relatie tussen vliegtuiggeluid en ernstige hinder of slaapverstoring bij 14 luchthavens in Nederland\, dit heet een blootstelling-responsrelatie (BR-relatie). \nVoor de meeste luchthavens is er een duidelijke relatie te zien. Dat betekent dat de kans op ernstige hinder of slaapverstoring toeneemt naarmate het geluidniveau toeneemt. Wel kan de relatie per luchthaven verschillen en in de loop van de tijd veranderen. Het RIVM adviseert om voor beleid en regelgeving altijd actuele en voor de luchthaven specifieke BR-relaties te gebruiken. Zo kan de gezondheid van bewoners het best beschermd worden tegen vliegtuiggeluid. Op dit moment wordt in beleid en regelgeving nog vaak de BR-relatie uit 2002 toegepast om de effecten op hinder en slaapverstoring in te schatten. Deze is niet alleen oud\, maar ook afgeleid op basis van alleen gegevens voor Schiphol. Het onderzoek uit 2020 om BR-relaties opnieuw vast te stellen\, viel midden in de coronapandemie. Er was toen minder vliegverkeer en mensen brachten meer tijd thuis door. Dit kan effect hebben gehad op de uitkomsten. Daarom heeft het RIVM op verzoek van het ministerie van IenW en Defensie de relatie tussen vliegtuiggeluid en hinder vastgesteld op basis van nieuwe gegevens uit 2024. Het RIVM berekende de BR-relatie voor de luchthavens van Schiphol\, Rotterdam\, Lelystad\, Eelde\, Eindhoven en Maastricht en acht militaire vliegvelden. \nLinks:\nNieuwe blootstelling-responsrelaties voor luchthavens in Nederland \nRIVM: overheid gebruikt achterhaalde cijfers over overlast Schiphol\, meer mensen met ernstige slaapverstoring dan eerder gemeld

SUMMARY:Risicoscan internationale dreigingen voor de Nederlandse volksgezondheid\, Nederland beter voorbereid op de toekomst - publicatie
DESCRIPTION:Experts zien des- en misinformatie en de toenemende druk op internationale samenwerking als nieuwe grote dreigingen voor de volksgezondheid in Nederland; ook de afnemende slagkracht van internationale organisaties\, zoals de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie (WHO) baart hun zorgen. \nDeze nieuwe dreigingen komen bovenop al bekende dreigingen zoals de ongevoeligheid van ziekteverwekkers voor medicijnen. Dat blijkt uit het onderzoek ‘Risicoscan internationale dreigingen voor de Nederlandse volksgezondheid\, Nederland beter voorbereid op de toekomst‘ van het Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu (RIVM). Het RIVM vroeg experts uit de wetenschap\, beleid en praktijk naar de toekomstige internationale dreigingen voor de volksgezondheid in Nederland\, inclusief Caribisch Nederland. Naast bovengenoemde punten werden ook de gevolgen van klimaatverandering\, zoals hogere temperaturen en meer weersextremen\, vaak genoemd. Verder vinden de experts het belangrijk dat de dreigingen in samenhang bekeken worden. De gedachte hierachter is dat verschillende dreigingen elkaar kunnen beïnvloeden en versterken.  \nLinks:\nDesinformatie en druk op internationale samenwerking grote internationale dreigingen voor Nederlandse volksgezondheid \nRIVM vreest polycrisis: samenwerking nodig voor zich opstapelende problemen

SUMMARY:Wereld Sclerodermie Dag / World Scleroderma Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Op 29 juni wordt jaarlijks tijdens Wereld Sclerodermie Dag / World Scleroderma Day aandacht gevraagd voor (behandeling van en onderzoek naar) Sclerodermie / systemische sclerose (Engels: (systemic) scleroderma)\, een chronische auto-immuunziekte die wordt gerekend tot de reumatische aandoeningen. \nDe naam ‘sclerodermie’ betekent ‘harde huid’. De ziekte veroorzaakt een verharding (sclerosering) van bindweefsel die zich doorgaans voordoet in de huid en vaak gepaard gaat met problemen van de haarvaten. Het kan ook interne organen aantasten\, waaronder de maag\, slokdarm\, darm\, longen en nieren. Er wordt onderscheid gemaakt tussen twee verschijningsvormen: morfea en systemische sclerodermie. Hoewel morfea en systemische sclerose gelijksoortige huidafwijkingen hebben\, is er verder weinig overlap. Morfea gaat niet in systemische sclerose over. Symptomen die pleiten voor systemische sclerose zijn het fenomeen van Raynaud\, symmetrische huidafwijkingen en positieve ANA. Systemische sclerose is relatief zeldzaam: slechts twee tot zestien nieuwe gevallen per miljoen inwoners. Morfea komt vaker voor. De oorzaak is niet bekend. Er wordt onderzocht of het mogelijk een erfelijke achtergrond heeft. \nLinks:\nWorld Scleroderma day

SUMMARY:Day of Deafblindness 2026
DESCRIPTION:The UN General Assembly adopted resolution A/RES/79/294\, proclaiming 27 June of each year the International Day of Deafblindness. \nThis day commemorates the birth of renowned author Helen Keller (1880 – 1968)\, one of the most iconic figures in the deafblindness community. Deafblindness is a combined vision and hearing impairment of such severity that it is hard for the impaired senses to compensate for each other\, and is thus a distinct disability with its own specific challenges\, barriers and requirements for support and inclusion\, different from those provided to individuals\, who are solely deaf or blind. Deafblind persons face barriers owing to deafblindness not being treated and/or recognized as a distinct disability\, further leading to invisibility in statistics\, policies and programmes\, and therefore impeding access to services. Professional deafblind interpreters and interpreter-guides are critical in ensuring access to information\, communication\, services and fundamental rights\, as well as enabling individuals with deafblindness to live independently and be included in the community. \nLinks:\nDay of Deafblindness

SUMMARY:#WorldDrugDay Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking / World Drug Report - publication 2026
DESCRIPTION:By resolution 42/112 of 7 December 1987\, the General Assembly decided to observe 26 June as the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking as an expression of its determination to strengthen action and cooperation to achieve the goal of an international society free of drug abuse. \nSupported each year by individuals\, communities\, and various organizations all over the world\, this global observance aims to raise awareness of the major problem that illicit drugs represent to society. Global drug use and the number of drugs on the market have been increasing in the past decades. The century-long dominance of heroin in illicit global opioid markets is increasingly being challenged by changes in the illegal supply of opioids. Production\, seizures and use of cocaine continue to rise\, while low costs of manufacture and reduced risks of detection of synthetic drugs are contributing to their increase on illicit drug markets. Drug trafficking groups are seeking out technological innovation to target new audiences and ensure that drugs increasingly reach their users and help boost their billion-dollar businesses. Illicit drug markets have always been adapting\, and organized crime has always been looking to exploit gaps in governance and regulation. In response to these challenges\, this year’s campaign will showcase how the international community\, local and national governments\, civil society and the public is working together on innovative responses to reduce demand for and supply of illicit drugs and thus mitigate threats. Every year\, UNODC issues the World Drug Report\, full of key statistics and factual data obtained through official sources\, a science-based approach and research. UNODC continues to provide facts and practical solutions to address the current world drug problem and remains committed to attaining health for all. Health and justice sectors are under pressure and access to services and support is obstructed when we can least afford it. \nLinks:\nDay Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking \nWorld drug problem: persisting issues\, new challenges\, innovative responses

SUMMARY:Wereld Vitiligo Dag / World Vitiligo Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Elk jaar op 25 juni wordt tijdens Wereld Vitiligo Dag (World Vitiligo Day) aandacht gevraagd voor vitiligo\, wereldwijd staan er mensen stil bij de huidaandoening die voorkomt bij 1% van de mensen. \nDoor het delen van kennis en het ophalen van donaties\, wordt er gestreefd naar meer bewustwording en een verbetering in de kwaliteit van leven voor mensen met vitiligo. Vitiligo (soms ook leukoderma genoemd) is een huidziekte\, waarbij bepaalde pigmentafwijkingen optreden vanwege verstoringen in de productie van het huidpigment melanine. De patiënt ontwikkelt meer of minder uitgebreide\, scherp begrensde maar onregelmatig gevormde plekken waar het huidpigment verdwenen is\, vaak symmetrisch verdeeld op het lichaam of de ledematen. Vooral bij mensen met een donkere huid geeft dit een zeer opvallend en (door de patiënt zelf ervaren als) ontsierend effect en de ongepigmenteerde huid kan in de zon ook makkelijk verbranden. Langs de randen van de plekken vormen zich soms donkere plekken. Dit komt vooral veel voor in de schaamstreek\, bij mannen op het scrotum. De donkere plekken veranderen soms van structuur en plaats\, en blijven vaak niet stabiel maar blijven meestal wel beperkt tot een bepaald gedeelte van de huid en breiden zich vaak niet verder uit. Vitiligo kan overal op de huid van het menselijk lichaam voorkomen en wordt vaak als een probleem ervaren als het in bijvoorbeeld de gelaatsstreek ontstaat of als er op het lichaam meerdere plekken ontstaan. Vitiligo over een groot deel van het gehele lichaam komt minder voor. Mensen met deze pigmentafwijking mogen niet te lang blootgesteld worden aan zonlicht aangezien zij minder beschermd zijn tegen UV-straling. Vitiligo gaat soms gepaard met andere auto-immuunziekten\, zoals hypothyreoïdie\, lichen sclerosus\, myasthenia gravis en de ziekte van Addison. Meestal staat de ziekte echter op zichzelf. \nLinks:\nWorld Vitiligo Day \n25june

SUMMARY:World Kidney Cancer Day / Wereld Nierkanker Dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:World Kidney Cancer Day is celebrated around the world every year on the third Thursday of June by patients\, carers\, healthcare professionals and local organisations. \nSince it was established in 2017\, it is a day dedicated to raising awareness of the local and global impact of kidney cancer\, educating people about the disease\, and making a difference in the lives of people affected by kidney cancer. World Kidney Cancer Day (WKCD) 2026 will be on 18 June\, marking the 10th year of raising awareness for kidney cancer worldwide. The 2026 theme is ‘Kidney Cancer and Emotional Wellbeing‘. Results from findings of the 2025 Global Patient Survey on Kidney Cancer show that 85% of kidney cancer patients experience emotional challenges\, yet many never raise these issues with their care team. The 2026 WKCD campaign will aim to raise awareness and also help empower patients to seek the support they need. \nLinks:\nWorld Kidney Cancer Day

SUMMARY:#WorldDengueDay Wereld Knokkelkoorts Dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:Building on a rapidly growing global consensus\, in 2018 the International Society for Neglected Tropical Diseases (ISNTD) started a worldwide dengue awareness campaign\, which included calling on the UN and WHO to designate a World Dengue Day. \nIts petition for a World Dengue Day has to date garnered over 26\,500 signatures\, endorsed by a growing and global collective of patients\, policy makers\, researchers\, professionals and advocates from over 110 countries\, who share the clear goal of reducing the burden of dengue around the world. In addition\, ISNTD also convened an international and multi-sectoral Dengue Advisory Group\, comprised of partners from Ministries of Health\, research and academia\, NGOs and civic society\, to guide this campaign. Such a move is not without precedent. On 15 June 2011\, ASEAN Health Ministers first declared that day — and each subsequent 15 June — ASEAN Dengue Day. This important annual event allows ASEAN members\, in coordination with WHO\, to consolidate dengue prevention and control measures. \nThe World Dengue Day campaign is aiming to achieve the same – on an international scale given the rapidly growing global threat of dengue. Growing population densities\, unplanned urban development\, poor water storage and unsatisfactory sanitary conditions are all common factors that contribute to the worsening burden of this mosquito-borne disease – not just for ASEAN\, but for many countries around the world. The disease has significant impact on the socio-economic status of every country. Tackling dengue is everyone’s concern. ISNTD-ADVA World Dengue Day Forum – Cross Sector Synergies marks a day that all governments\, civil societies\, public and private sectors\, schools\, universities and citizens\, can devote to dengue awareness-raising actions. Additionally\, the Forum will give countries around the world a platform to share their strategies for increasing public awareness of dengue\, mobilize resources for its prevention and control\, and demonstrate their commitment to tackling dengue. \nLinks:\nWorld Dengue Day

SUMMARY:World Blood Donor Day / Wereldbloeddonordag 2026
DESCRIPTION:World Blood Donor Day (WBDD) is celebrated every year by people around the world on June 14\, it is celebrated on the birthday anniversary of Karl Landsteiner on June 14\, 1868\, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for his discovery of the ABO blood group system. \nWBDD was organised for the first time in 2005\, by a joint initiative of World Health Organisation\, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products\, and to thank blood donors for their voluntary\, life-saving gifts of blood. Transfusion of blood and blood products helps and save millions of lives every year. It can help patients who suffering from life-threatening conditions live longer and with higher quality of life\, and supports complex medical and surgical procedures. It also has an essential\, life-saving role in maternal and perinatal care. Access to safe and sufficient blood and blood products can help reduce rates of death and disability due to severe bleeding during delivery and after childbirth. In many countries\, there is not an adequate supply of safe blood\, and blood services face the challenge of making sufficient blood available\, while also ensuring its quality and safety. An adequate supply can only be assured through regular donations by voluntary unpaid blood donors. The WHO’s goal is for all countries to obtain all their blood supplies from voluntary unpaid donors by 2020. In 2014\, 60 countries have their national blood supplies based on 99-100% voluntary unpaid blood donations\, with 73 countries still largely dependent on family and paid donors. \n2025 theme: Give blood\, give hope: together we save lives. The WHO honors hope\, the kind you give with every drop of blood. Because millions of patients around the world rely on blood transfusions every year\, hope flows through every donation. \nLinks:\nWorld Blood Donor Day \nWereld Bloeddonordag

SUMMARY:#AlbinismDay Albinism Awareness Day / Albinisme Dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:Albinism is a rare\, non-contagious\, genetically inherited difference present at birth\, congenital absence of melanin in an animal or plant resulting in white hair\, feathers\, scales and skin and reddish pink or blue eyes. \nIn almost all types of albinism\, both parents must carry the gene for it to be passed on\, even if they do not have albinism themselves. The condition is found in both sexes regardless of ethnicity and in all countries of the world. Albinism results in a lack of pigmentation (melanin) in the hair\, skin and eyes\, causing vulnerability to the sun and bright light. As a result\, almost all people with albinism are visually impaired and are prone to developing skin cancer. There is no cure for the absence of melanin that is central to albinism. While numbers vary\, it is estimated that in North America and Europe 1 in every 17\,000 to 20\,000 people have some form of albinism. The condition is much more prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa\, with estimates of 1 in 1\,400 people being affected in Tanzania  and prevalence as high as 1 in 1\,000 reported for select populations in Zimbabwe and for other specific ethnic groups in Southern Africa. \nThe lack of melanin means persons with albinism are highly vulnerable to developing skin cancer. In some countries\, a majority of persons with albinism die from skin cancer between 30 and 40 years of age. Skin cancer is highly preventable when persons with albinism enjoy their right to health. This includes access to regular health checks\, sunscreen\, sunglasses and sun-protective clothing. In a significant number of countries\, these life-saving means are unavailable or inaccessible to them. Consequently\, in the realm of development measures\, persons with albinism have been and are among those “left furthest behind.” Therefore\, they ought to be targeted for human rights interventions in the manner envisioned by the Sustainable Development Goals. \nDue to a lack of melanin in the skin and eyes\, persons with albinism often have permanent visual impairment. They also face discrimination due to their skin colour; as such\, they are often subject to multiple and intersecting discrimination on the grounds of both disability and colour. People with albinism face multiple forms of discrimination worldwide. Albinism is still profoundly misunderstood\, socially and medically. The physical appearance of persons with albinism is often the object of erroneous beliefs and myths influenced by superstition\, which foster their marginalization and social exclusion. This leads to various forms of stigma and discrimination. \nIn some communities\, erroneous beliefs and myths\, heavily influenced by superstition\, put the security and lives of persons with albinism at constant risk. These beliefs and myths are centuries old and are present in cultural attitudes and practices around the world. While it has been reported that persons with albinism globally face discrimination and stigma\, information on cases of physical attacks against persons with albinism is mainly available from countries in Africa. \nPersons with albinism face more severe forms of discrimination and violence in those regions\, where the majority of the general population are relatively dark-skinned. In other words\, a greater degree of contrast in pigmentation often gives rise to a greater degree of discrimination. That appears to be the case in some sub-Saharan African countries where albinism is shrouded in myth and dangerous and erroneous beliefs. The figures on violations against persons with albinism are telling. There have been hundreds of cases of attacks and killings of persons with albinism reported in 28 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa in the past decade. The attacks have several root causes including ignorance\, longstanding stigma\, poverty and most abhorrently\, harmful practices emanating from manifestation of beliefs in witchcraft. The alarming reality is that these horrendous practices continue today. \nThe manner in which discrimination faced by persons with albinism manifests itself\, and its severity\, vary from region to region. In the western world\, including North America\, Europe and Australia\, discrimination often consists of name-calling\, persistent teasing and bullying of children with albinism. Little information is available from other regions such as Asia\, South America and the Pacific etc. However\, some reports indicate that in China and other Asian countries\, children with albinism face abandonment and rejection by their families. \nLinks:\nAlbinism Awareness Day \nAttacks against people with albinism are hate crimes \nNot ghosts but human beings

SUMMARY:Robert Koch Colloquium 2026 "Navigating Public Health in Times of Global Uncertainties"
DESCRIPTION:The Robert Koch Colloquium (RKC) is an annual interdisciplinary lecture series. It focuses each year on one contemporary and innovative public health topic\, such as Burden of Disease (2019)\, Public Health Surveillance (2021)\, Climate Change and Public Health (2022)\, Social Inequities in Health (2023)\, Mobility and Public Health (2024) and Public Health Data (2025). \nEach year\, the Robert Koch Institute invites leading international experts to present and discuss their area of work at the Robert Koch Colloquium. This year’s colloquium topic was “Navigating Public Health in times of Global uncertainties”. Over two days\, a series of interactive lectures addressed topics related to the impact of conflicts on Public Health systems\, global sharing of health data in times of uncertainty\, the current shifts in health governance at local\, national and international level as well as the citizens’ trust in Public Health science. The lectures were  complemented by a panel discussion. \nThe Robert Koch Colloquium 2026 addressed an urgent challenge of today’s public health landscape: how to adapt to global uncertainties and political fragmentation. Armed conflicts\, political and economic instability\, climate-related pressures\, and fluctuating public trust increasingly shape the contexts in which public health systems operate\, challenging established modes-of-action and international cooperation. In response to these dynamics\, the RKC 2026 brought together leading international experts to reflect on how public health can respond and evolve under conditions of crisis and transformation. Over two days\, the programme examined public health action in times of crisis. We explored\n1) the health impacts of armed conflict on population health including mental health and non-communicable diseases.\n2) widening inequalities in times of global polycrisis.\n3) the need for a resilient global health architecture during geopolitical shifts in power and interests. The colloquium also shed light on advancing health data justice and the development of resilient cross-border data-sharing frameworks that can withstand political and financial pressures. Particular attention was paid to the current challenge of building and sustaining trust in evidence-based public health science in times of widespread misinformation. The colloquium concluded with a panel discussion titled “Rethinking Global Public Health: From Crisis Response to Long-term Sustainability”\, synthesizing key insights and outlining visions towards a more resilient and equitable public health future. By combining scientific perspectives with policy-oriented insights\, the RKC 2026 aimed to foster interdisciplinary dialogue across sectors and governance levels. \nLinks:\nRobert Koch Colloquium 2026 “Navigating Public Health in Times of Global Uncertainties”

SUMMARY:#WorldClubfootDay / Wereld Klompvoet Dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:Clubfoot\, or talipes equinovarus\, is a treatable birth defect where one or both feet are rotated inward and downward that affects approximately 150\,000-200\,000 children each year. \nThe affected foot and leg may be smaller in size compared to the other. Approximately 50% of cases of clubfoot affect both feet. Most of the time\, it is not associated with other problems. Without treatment\, the foot remains deformed\, and people walk on the sides of their feet. This may lead to pain and difficulty walking. The exact cause is usually not identified. Both genetic and environmental factors are believed to be involved. If one identical twin is affected\, there is a 33% chance the other one will be as well. The underlying mechanism involves disruption of the muscles or connective tissue of the lower leg\, leading to joint contracture. Other abnormalities are associated 20% of the time\, with the most common being distal arthrogryposis and myelomeningocele. The diagnosis may be made at birth by examination or before birth during an ultrasound exam. \nInitial treatment is most often with the Ponseti method. This involves moving the foot into an improved position followed by casting\, which is repeated at weekly intervals. Once the inward bending is improved\, the Achilles tendon is often cut\, and braces are worn until the age of four. Initially\, the brace is worn nearly continuously and then just at night. In about 20% of cases\, further surgery is required. Treatment can be carried out by a range of healthcare providers and can generally be achieved in the developing world with few resources. Clubfoot occurs in 1 to 4 of every 1\,000 live births\, making it one of the most common birth defects affecting the legs. About 80% of cases occur in developing countries where there is limited access to care. Clubfoot is more common in firstborn children and males. It is more common among Māori people\, and less common among Chinese people. \nLinks:\nWorld Clubfoot Day

SUMMARY:#TobaccoExposed World #NoTobacco Day / Wereld Anti-Tabaksdag / Wereld Niet Roken Dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:World No Tobacco Day (WNTD)  is observed around the world every year on 31 May. \nThe yearly celebration informs the public on the dangers of using tobacco\, the business practices of tobacco companies\, what the World Health Organization (WHO) is doing to fight against the use of tobacco\, and what people around the world can do to claim their right to health and healthy living and to protect future generations. The Member States of the WHO created World No Tobacco Day in 1987 to draw global attention to the tobacco epidemic and the preventable death and disease it causes. The day is further intended to draw attention to the widespread prevalence of tobacco use and to negative health effects\, which currently lead to more than 8 million deaths each year worldwide\, including 1.2 million as the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke. The day has been met with both enthusiasm and resistance around the globe from governments\, public health organizations\, smokers\, growers\, and the tobacco industry. \nLinks:\nWorld No Tobacco Day \nWHO raises alarm on tobacco industry environmental impact \nTabakNee \nIt’s Time to Ban Cigarette Filters \nVerenigd Koninkrijk stap dichter bij tabaksverbod \nEuropean Week Against Cancer \nOnderzoek: stoppen met roken loont meer dan gedacht

SUMMARY:#MSConnections World MS Day / Wereld MS-dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:World multiple sclerosis (MS) Day is marked on 30 May\, it brings the global MS community together to share stories\, raise awareness and campaign with everyone affected by MS. \nWorld MS Day activities take place throughout the month of May and in early June. The campaign offers flexibility for individuals and organisations to achieve a variety of goals. MS is one of the most common diseases of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). In 2024\, there are 2.9 million people living with MS worldwide. MS is an inflammatory demyelinating condition. It is caused by damage to myelin – a fatty material that insulates nerves. In MS\, the loss of myelin affects the way nerves conduct electrical impulses to and from the brain. Symptoms can include blurred vision\, weak limbs\, tingling sensations\, unsteadiness\, memory problems\, and fatigue. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40. MS is two to three times more common in women than in men. There is no drug that can cure MS\, but treatments are available which can modify the course of the disease. \nThe theme for World MS Day 2024-2025 is diagnosis. The name of the campaign is My MS Diagnosis and the tagline: navigating MS together. The My MS Diagnosis campaign advocates for early and accurate diagnosis for everyone living with MS. It highlights the global barriers to diagnosing MS\, raising awareness by sharing real stories and data. We are calling for better MS training for healthcare professionals\, new research\, and clinical advancements in MS diagnosis. Together we are building informed\, caring communities and systems that support people diagnosed with MS. \nLinks:\nWorld MS Day

SUMMARY:#EmergencyMedicineDay 2026
DESCRIPTION:The aim of Emergency Medicine day is to unite the world population and decision makers to think and talk about emergency medicine and emergency medical care. \nIt is important to build awareness about the need for well developed\, well prepared and well organised emergency medical systems everywhere in the world to increase survival and reduce disability after any kind of urgent or emergent medical situation. Where the specialty in emergency medicine is not yet developed\, where emergency medical systems are not well structured\, where competences are not standardized and certified\, where resources for emergency medicine are insufficient\, there should be a strong voice to ask and claim for a change\, for a better life. The mission is to explain to the people that emergency medical care is better performed with competent professionals; doctors\, specialists in emergency medicine\, nurses trained in emergency and acute care\, paramedics\, technicians\, support personnel competent and working in organized structures and systems dedicated to emergency medical care. To show to people and governments that this organization makes a difference in terms of morbidity\, mortality\, and cost-effectiveness. The 27th of May is the day when Emergency Medicine in Europe took its beginning. In London a group of visionary people signed the founding act of the European Society for Emergency Medicine. The aim was to build up a system model to grant to every citizen in Europe a professional\, competent and above all timely response to any life\, organ or limb threatening acute condition. The 2025 theme\, “Proud to Provide Your Emergency Care\,” celebrates the dedication of emergency care providers who deliver critical\, life-saving services every day—often under immense pressure. \nLinks:\nEmergency Medicine day

SUMMARY:European Week Against Cancer 2026
DESCRIPTION:The European Week Against Cancer (EWAC)\, an initiative from the Association of European Cancer Leagues (ECL) that takes place between 25 and 31 May each year to raise awareness about the importance of cancer prevention and care. \nCancer continues to affect thousands of people across Europe every year. Cancer claimed the lives of an estimated 1.3 million people in 2022 alone\, making it the leading cause of death for people aged under 65 in Europe. Together\, we can reverse this trend. Where you live should not determine your risk of cancer or your chances of surviving it. Cancer affects everyone\, but the differences in how it is prevented\, diagnosed\, and treated remain deeply unequal across Europe. Theme European Week Against Cancer 2026 is ‘Together against cancer inequalities’\, a call to end inequalities in access to prevention\, early detection\, treatment and care for all. Cancer leagues and partners across Europe are coming together to promote the European Week Against Cancer both online and in communities across the continent\, and we invite you to be a part of it. Each day of the week spotlights a key theme\, covering the full cancer care journey\, from prevention and early prevention to treatment\, patient support\, survivorship\, and cancer research. Together\, these themes reflect the many ways we can reduce the burden of cancer. \n \nLinks:\nEuropean Week Against Cancer 2026

SUMMARY:#PsychoseAwarenessDay / #WorldSchizophreniaDay 2026
DESCRIPTION:Een psychose is een psychiatrisch toestandsbeeld waarbij de patiënt gedurende een zekere periode het contact met de werkelijkheid geheel of gedeeltelijk kwijt is. \nBij een psychose spreekt men van positieve en negatieve symptomen. Positieve symptomen zijn symptomen die duidelijk bij iemand aanwezig zijn\, zoals hallucinaties en wanen. Het begrip negatief symptoom verwijst naar afwezigheid of vervlakking van iets\, bijvoorbeeld emotie\, spraak\, daadkracht of gedachten. Positieve symptomen zijn: \n\n    Wanen – Denkbeelden die niet overeenkomen met algemeen geaccepteerde opvattingen en of ideeën waarvan de patiënt niet af te brengen is met logisch redeneren. Vaak\, maar niet altijd\, is er ook sprake van paranoia; overmatige achterdocht die bijvoorbeeld leidt tot de inbeelding dat overal camera’s of microfoons verstopt zijn\, dat er complotten zijn\, of dat de persoon in kwestie gezocht wordt door de politie of door internationale veiligheidsdiensten.\n    Hallucinaties – Het waarnemen van zaken die er niet zijn\, zoals stemmen in het hoofd\, beelden\, geuren of aanrakingen.\n    Verward denken – Psychotici en hun omgeving hebben erg veel moeite elkaar te begrijpen doordat het denk- en uitdrukkingsproces veranderd is door de psychose. Het is chaotisch en of te langzaam of te snel. Het gedrag van de patiënt is door zijn omgeving vaak niet meer te plaatsen (en vice versa). De gedachtenstop\, waarbij de patiënt het gevoel heeft dat zijn gedachten plotseling volledig stoppen\, wordt als een ernstige vorm van denkstoornis gezien.\n    Verward spreken en schrijven – Zelfs als de gedachten van de patiënt samenhangend zijn kan hij problemen hebben deze in taal te uiten. Soms uit zich dit in gehaast spreken\, vreemde woordkeuzes of het gebruik van neologismen. Bij grotere verwarring kunnen ook verschijnselen als echolalie\, palilalie of glossolalie optreden.\n    Verstoorde emoties – Een patiënt kan versterkte emoties ervaren of totaal niet bij een situatie passende\, zoals lachen op een begrafenis. Ook kan iemand schijnbaar zonder reden plotseling emotioneel worden; hij of zij begint bijvoorbeeld ineens te huilen. Emoties kunnen ook afwezig lijken.\n\nNegatieve symptomen zijn: \n\n    Weinig spreken\n    Gebrek aan initiatief tonen\n    Verstoord dag-nachtritme gedurende langere tijd\n    Weinig energie hebben\n    Geringe motorische expressie\, onder andere een vlakke gezichtsuitdrukking\n    Zich bovenmatig terugtrekken.\n\nPsychose Awareness Day Nederland is een initiatief van het Netwerk Vroege Psychose i.s.m. het Rob Giel Onderzoekcentrum\, Psychosenet\, Mind Ypsilon\, Anoiksis\, Kenniscentrum Phrenos\, Hamlett en Marvelous Mind. \nLinks:\n7 mythen over psychose \nWorld Schizophrenia Day

SUMMARY:World AUTOimmune & AUTOinflammatory Arthritis Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:World AUTOimmune & AUTOinflammatory Arthritis Day is organized on May 20th annually. \nLack of awareness leads to relationship conflicts\, delayed diagnosis\, compromised quality of life\, and elevated healthcare costs. Education about these diseases\, including the fact they are full body diseases affecting many parts (joints\, tissues\, organs) is necessary to improve the lives of the 450 million worldwide affected. World AUTOimmune & AUTOinflammatory Arthritis Day was established by our nonprofit in 2012 to raise awareness about the AUTOimmune and AUTOinflammatory diseases that include inflammatory-driven arthritis (AiArthritis) as a major clinical component. This event historically unites thousands of people in 60 + countries worldwide to DRIVE global awareness and education about our diseases. It’s a day for ALL organizations\, we just manage it through the official World AiArthritis Day social media pages.  To catch the attention of those who do not understand our diseases\, including the type of arthritis associated with them\, we use AUTO-themed awareness and education materials. \nLinks:\nWorld AUTOimmune & AUTOinflammatory Arthritis Day

SUMMARY:Wereld IBD dag / World IBD Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:IBD staat voor Inflammatory Bowel Disease en is de verzamelnaam voor de chronische darmziekten colitis ulcerosa en de ziekte van Crohn. \nVoor patiënten met colitis ulcerosa en de ziekte van Crohn is dat geen symbolische dag\, maar een herkenning van hun dagelijkse werkelijkheid. Klachten die komen en gaan\, energie die beperkt is en een ziekte die vaak onzichtbaar blijft. Chronische ontsteking van het spijsverteringskanaal of darm\, IBD\, raakt niet alleen de patiënt zelf. Ook partners\, ouders en kinderen bewegen mee met de ziekte. Dat maakt het thema van Wereld IBD Dag in 2026\, ‘Met elkaar sterker’\, concreet en dichtbij. Want omgaan met IBD doe je niet alleen. \nLinks:\nWorld IBD Day \nWereld IBD Dag 19 mei 2026 \nWereld IBD Dag 2026: Met elkaar sterker

SUMMARY:#WorldFamilyDoctorDay Wereldhuisartsendag 2026
DESCRIPTION:World Family Doctor Day (FDD) – 19th May – was first declared by WONCA in 2010 and it has become a day to highlight the role and contribution of family doctors and primary care teams in healthcare systems around the world. \nThis celebration is the perfect opportunity to acknowledge the central role of Family Doctors in the delivery of personal\, comprehensive and continuing health care for all patients. It’s also a chance to celebrate the progress being made in family medicine and the special contributions of primary care teams globally. In 2026\, FFD celebrates family doctors navigating a world reshaped by digital technology\, bringing their values of compassion\, continuity and person-centred care into the digital age. Artificial intelligence can detect patterns\, generate documentation and optimise workflows. But it cannot recognise hesitation. It cannot interpret silence. It cannot perceive fear behind polite reassurance. In many of our cultures\, meaning is conveyed indirectly\, through tone\, through pauses\, and through relationship built over years. No algorithm captures that. \nLinks:\nWorld Family Doctor Day

SUMMARY:#WHA79 79th World Health Assembly
DESCRIPTION:The World Health Assembly (WHA) is the forum through which the World Health Organization (WHO) is governed by its 193 member states\, it is the world’s highest health policy setting body and is composed of health ministers from member states. \nThe members of the WHA generally meet every year in May in Geneva\, Switzerland\, at the Palace of Nations\, the location of WHO Headquarters. The main tasks of the WHA are to decide major policy questions\, as well as to approve the WHO work programme and budget and elect its Director-General (every fifth year) and annually to elect ten members to renew part of its executive board. Its main functions are to determine the policies of the Organization\, supervise financial policies\, and review and approve the proposed programme budget. The Seventy-ninth World Health Assembly (WHA79) takes place in Geneva\, Switzerland from 18 to 23 May 2026\, bringing together delegations from WHO Member States to set global health policy and advance the Organization’s strategic priorities. It will build upon the momentum of the last year’s 78th World Health Assembly\, which adopted the Global Action Plan on Climate Change and Health\, an updated road map for an enhanced global response to the adverse health effects of air pollution\, and the elevation of climate change as the first strategic objective of WHO’s Fourteenth General Programme of Work (GPW14\, 2025–2028). Looking forward to COP31\, co-hosted by Türkiye and Australia\, this Assembly offers an opportunity for the global climate and health community to convene and sustain the political momentum secured at WHA78. \nLinks:\n79th World Health Assembly \nKlimaatverandering bedreigt ook de volksgezondheid\, waarschuwen experts

SUMMARY:#WorldHypertensionDay / Wereld Hypertensie Dag 2026
DESCRIPTION:World Hypertension Day is observed every May 17th in order to raise awareness and promote hypertension prevention\, detection and control. \nHigh blood pressure is the main risk factor to develop cardiovascular disease. More than one billion people around the world live with hypertension (high blood pressure)\, which is a major cause of cardiovascular disease and premature death worldwide. The burden of hypertension is felt disproportionately in low- and middle-income countries\, where two thirds of cases are found\, largely due to increased risk factors in those populations in recent decades. What’s more\, around half of people living with hypertension are unaware of their condition\, putting them at risk of avoidable medical complications and death.\n\nLinks:\nWorld Hypertension Day 2026 \nWorld #SaltAwarenessWeek / Wereld Zout Bewustwordingsweek 2026\n
