In 2013, Prof Wasay ( Chair, Public awareness and advocacy, World Federation of Neurology 2013-2018) and my self were having a cup of coffee in the middle of a break during the World Congress Neurology Vienna.  " Brain disorders are the leading cause of disability globally with truble accessing quality neurology by our patients.  We must adavocate for change. How come there is no World Brain Day to promote advocacy for awareness, education, research and service building globally.  Through the commitee, then the WFN leadership, this became a reallity. 

This is a very brief introduction to the history as far as I can remember- please note that I am getting old too. I will come back with exciting news on 2020 World Brain Day soon. This is your day. Join us to promote better brain health. Brain matters.
