WSO gratefully acknowledges the financial contribution of its corporate partners towards the World Stroke Campaign. The overall objective of the campaign is to put the fight against stroke on the global health agenda. The “1 in 6” theme was selected by leaders of the WSO to highlight the fact that in today’s world, one in six people worldwide will have a stroke in their lifetime. Everyone, regardless of age and gender, is at risk and the situation could worsen with complacency and inaction.
The “1 in 6” campaign celebrates the fact that not only can stroke be prevented, but that stroke survivors can fully recover and regain their quality of life with the appropriate long-term care and support.
