World Hypertension Day 2025

We invite you to join this year's World Hypertension Day global hypertension awareness celebration on May 17, 2025, with the theme "Measure Your Blood Pressure Accurately, Control It, Live Longer!" WHD promotes increased awareness of high blood pressure and accuracy in blood pressure measurement, especially in low to middle income areas.
To help achieve this, WHL members and partners are encouraged to participate in WHD via blood pressure screenings, calls to actions, community events, media releases, and awareness campaigns worldwide. BP screenings and education on lifestyle modification and dietary salt reduction help reduce the risk for stroke, cardiovascular disease, and kidney disease in communities worldwide.
