Welcome to the SFCNS Swiss Brain Health Plan
2nd Stakeholder Meeting
It is our great pleasure to cordially invite you to the SFCNS Swiss Brain Health Plan 2nd Stakeholder Meeting, which will take place on December 5, 2024, from 10:00-18:30 at the Zentrum Paul Klee, Bern.
This Swiss Brain Health Plan implements the Swiss Brain Health Strategy in accordance with the EAN Brain Health Strategy, launched by the WHO and the European Academy of Neurology EAN in 2022.
The joint goal is awareness creation about brain health as a whole and to initiate prevention programs. The strategic task force of the Swiss Brain Health Plan consists of the about 50 authors of the publication «The Swiss Brain Health Plan 2023-2033».
The Swiss Brain Health Plan will be developed further by SFCNS as it involves many specialties of the neuro field. The goal of the 2nd Stakeholder Meeting is to strengthen information and awareness creation among all stakeholders i.e. politics, hospitals, patient organizations, researchers, insurances, companies and finally the public.
During the 2nd SFCNS SBHP Stakeholder Meeting representatives of the Swiss Healthcare system, politicians, patients as well as national and international experts will illustrate and explain the importance of good brain health across lifespan.
Why is Brain Health so important?
Good Brain Health is vital to reducing the large and growing healthcare burden associated with brain disorders. This strategy recognises that Brain Health goes beyond the absence of disease or treatment of disorders or rehabilitation and encompasses preventive measures to decrease the incidence of brain disorders, enabling individuals to function and cope with life situations.
