Global Walk Against Pain-Registration Open
Why this matters
1 in 5 people worldwide lives with chronic pain - often invisible. With the GLOBAL WALK AGAINST PAIN, we raise awareness for this condition.
Join with family, friends, colleagues, and neighbors - and take a stand together to increase awareness for people living with chronic pain.
Our idea
A global movement.
The GLOBAL WALK AGAINST PAIN is an international initiative bringing together pain research centers worldwide to make chronic pain more visible.
At multiple locations around the world, local walking events take place simultaneously. Participants walk lap after lap along a defined route, and each location records the total distance covered. These results are combined into a global total distance and displayed on walkagainstpain.org.
Together, we aim to walk thousands of kilometers - whether you walk 1 km or 40 km, every step moves us forward. Join us on August 29,2026 from 10am -12pm. To take part in the walk, registration is mandatory. Registering also entails you signing a liability waiver for the event.
