Connections campaign visual </p> </figure> </div> <p><strong>World MS Day is the MS movement’s annual campaign to raise awareness of the condition, and to support and connect the 2.8 million people living with it worldwide. It is a day to celebrate global solidarity and hope for the future.</strong></p> <p>In 2009, MSIF and our members initiated the first World MS Day. Together we have reached hundreds of thousands of people around the world, with a campaign focusing on a different theme each year.</p> <p>World MS Day is officially marked on 30 May. Events and campaigns take place throughout the month of May. It brings the global MS community together to share stories, raise awareness and campaign with and for everyone affected by multiple sclerosis.</p> <h3>2020-2023 – #MSConnections</h3> <p>The theme for 2020-2023 World MS Day campaign is connections. The MS Connections campaign is all about building community connection, self-connection and connections to quality care. The campaign tagline is ‘I Connect, We Connect’ and the campaign hashtag is #MSConnections.</p> <p>This campaign, developed in collaboration with members of the global MSIF movement, will challenge social barriers that leave people affected by MS feeling lonely and socially isolated. It is an opportunity to advocate for better services, celebrate support networks and champion self-care.</p> <h3>Your campaign angles</h3> <p>MS Connections is a flexible, wide-ranging theme. Whether you’re individual or an organisation, you can choose to focus on a variety of angles when celebrating World MS Day, including:</p> <ul> <li>Challenging social barriers and stigma that can leave people affected by MS feeling lonely and isolated</li> <li>Building communities that support and nurture people affected by MS</li> <li>Promoting self-care and healthy living with MS</li> <li>Lobbying decision makers for better services and effective treatment for people with MS</li> <li>People affected by MS connecting to and shaping MS research.</li> </ul> <p>MSIF provides a toolkit of free resources to help everyone to take part in World MS Day. Anyone can use these tools, or make their own, to create positive change in the lives of more than 2.8 million people around the world.</p> <p> </p> <h3><a href="http://www.worldmsday.org">Go to the World MS Day website</a></h3> <div class="image-blocks image-block-2 clearfix"> <div class="image-block"> <img src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMDI0IDY4MyIgd2lkdGg9IjEwMjQiIGhlaWdodD0iNjgzIiBkYXRhLXU9Imh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGd3d3Lm1zaWYub3JnJTJGd3AtY29udGVudCUyRnVwbG9hZHMlMkYyMDE0JTJGMTAlMkZMLVdvcmxkLU1TLURheS1pbi1ZZW1lbi5qcGciIGRhdGEtdz0iMTAyNCIgZGF0YS1oPSI2ODMiIGRhdGEtYmlwPSIiPjwvc3ZnPg==" data-spai="1" alt="A woman in a yellow headscarf holds a microphone as she speaks to the room"> <p class="image-caption">A speaker at a World MS Day event in Yemen</p> </div> <div class="image-block"> <img src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA1MTUgMzQyIiB3aWR0aD0iNTE1IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjM0MiIgZGF0YS11PSJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy5tc2lmLm9yZyUyRndwLWNvbnRlbnQlMkZ1cGxvYWRzJTJGMjAxNCUyRjA5JTJGcm9tYW5pYTEtNi1lMTQxMDM2MzA2MDM0MS5qcGciIGRhdGEtdz0iNTE1IiBkYXRhLWg9IjM0MiIgZGF0YS1iaXA9IiI+PC9zdmc+" data-spai="1" alt="Two women and two men on bicycles celebrate World MS Day in Romania"> <p class="image-caption">World MS Day 2014 in Romania</p> </div> </div> <div class="page-tags clearfix"> <h4>Page Tags:</h4> <ul class="clearfix"> <li><a href="https://www.msif.org/tag/world-ms-day">World MS Day</a></li> </ul> </div> </section> <section class="sidebar col-md-3"> <section class="widget widget-members"> <header> <h3>Our members</h3> <p>MS International Federation – the only global network of MS organisations.</p> </header> <button class="widget-members-prev" type="button">Prev</button> <button class="widget-members-next" type="button">Next</button> <ul class="members"> </ul> </section> <div> <section class="widget widget-links"> <header> <h3>Past World MS Days</h3> </header> <ul class="links"> <li><a href="https://www.msif.org/news/2019/07/17/the-global-movement-came-together-and-shone-a-spotlight-on-ms/">The global movement came together and shone a spotlight on MS</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.msif.org/news/2018/05/08/bringing-us-closer-world-ms-day-2018/">Bringing Us Closer: World MS Day 2018</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.msif.org/news/2017/06/26/highlights-from-world-ms-day/">Highlights from World MS Day</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.msif.org/news/2017/05/24/world-ms-day-is-around-the-corner/">World MS Day is around the corner…</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.msif.org/news/2015/05/26/world-ms-day-2015/">World MS Day 2015</a></li> </ul> </section> </div> </section> </div> </div> </main> <div id="root-footer"></div> </div> <footer class="footer" id="footer" role="contentinfo"> <div class="footer-top"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="footer-heading"><a href="/contact-us">Contact us</a></div> <p>MS International Federation<br> Canopi<br> Unit A, Arc House<br> 82 Tanner Street<br> London SE1 3GN<br> United Kingdom</p> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="footer-heading">Follow us</div> <p class="hidden-xs">Keep in touch with our work on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.</p> <ul class="social-links"> <li class="twitter"><a href="https://twitter.com/MSIntFederation" title="Follow us on Twitter">Twitter</a></li> <li class="facebook"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Multiple-Sclerosis-International-Federation/110033075774139" title="Like us on Facebook">Facebook</a></li> <li class="youtube"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/MSIFmedia" title="Subscribe to our YouTube channel">YouTube</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="footer-heading">Translate this site</div> <p>Parts of this site are available in Arabic and Spanish.
