The World Federation of Neurology (WFN) celebrates World Brain Day on every July 22, focusing on a different theme each year. This is one of the most important annual celebrations in the world, as it helps raise awareness on an increasingly significant health issue, especially in our modern age. Brain health can refer to many prevention methods designed to help preserve both mental health and brain neurological health. As people have become increasingly more vulnerable to neurological issues, raising awareness of the issue is as important.
What is the theme of World Brain Day 2022?
World Brain Day (WBD) 2022 is dedicated to the theme “Brain Health for all” as our brains continue to be challenged by pandemics, wars, climate change and the myriad of disorders impacting human existence globally.

- Awareness: Brain health is vital for mental, social, and physical wellbeing
- Prevention: Many brain diseases are preventable
- Advocacy: Global efforts are required for optimal brain health
- Education: Education for all is key for brain health
- Access: Equitable access to resources, treatment, and rehabilitation is essential for brain health
