World Stroke Campaign / World Stroke Day / World Stroke Day Events / Caminata POr Una Vida Libre de ACV

We carried out the 7th Walk for Stroke as part of World Stroke Day. We brought together more than 500 participants, including stroke survivors, family members, and stroke care professionals. We walked 3 kilometers around a beautiful natural lake in Buenos Aires, Argentina, while raising key messages about “every minute counts,” stroke awareness, acute treatment, and life after stroke. We also included educational games provided by the Angels Initiative, and we were accompanied by a wonderful choir that encouraged and energized the group. Our physical activity instructor did an excellent job getting everyone to exercise and dance, creating a very positive and engaging atmosphere.
