On September 29th, as every year, the world unites to celebrate World Heart Day. This date, promoted by the World Heart Federation (WHF), aims to remind us of the importance of caring for our vital organ and raising awareness about cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which are the leading cause of death globally, claiming more than 20.5 million lives annually.

"Use ❤️ to Act": The Call of World Heart Day

Under the inspiring slogan "Use ❤️ to Act", the 2024 edition of World Heart Day aims to motivate governments and organizations to create and strengthen national cardiovascular health plans. Prevention is key to reducing the alarming mortality rate from cardiovascular diseases, and this day is an excellent opportunity for individuals, businesses, and communities to come together and create real change.

This day is much more than just a commemoration: it is a platform for action in which hundreds of WHF member organizations, along with educational institutions, sports organizations, and the active cardiology community around the world, participate. A truly global movement across six continents!
