Global Campaign against Headache
Global Campaign against Headache
The Global Campaign against Headache aims to reduce the burden of headache worldwide, achieving this by working with local policy-makers and principal stakeholders to plan and implement healthcare services for headache, ensuring these are appropriate to local systems, resources and needs.
The Global Campaign against Headache, led by Lifting The Burden, is a collaboration between the World Health Organization, nongovernmental organisations, academic institutions and individuals worldwide. The Department of Neuroscience at NTNU functions as the academic base of the campaign, and academic partner to Lifting The Burden.
Our objectives:
- Know the size and nature of the headache problem in all regions of the world;
- Persuade governments and other health-service policy-makers, among others, that headache must have higher healthcare priority;
- Work with local policy-makers and principal stakeholders to plan and implement healthcare services for headache, ensuring these are appropriate to local systems, resources and needs.
