We are pleased to announce the release of the World Health Organisation’s Global Status Report on Neurology, a groundbreaking call to action to address the growing burden of neurological disorders and promote brain health for all.
This landmark publication presents the first-ever global baseline assessment under the Intersectoral Global Action Plan on Epilepsy and Other Neurological Disorders 2022–2031 (IGAP).
