International Epilepsy Day

International Epilepsy Day

International Epilepsy Day

International Epilepsy Day is a joint initiative created by the International Bureau for Epilepsy (IBE) and the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) celebrated annually on the 2nd Monday of February, to promote awareness on epilepsy right around the world. With IBE and ILAE representation in more than 140 countries, this is a powerful opportunity to highlight the problems faced by people with epilepsy, their families and carers, in every region of the world.

International Epilepsy Day is the opportunity for all stakeholders to join together and speak with one global voice. The objectives for International Epilepsy Day are:

  • to raise awareness of the disease at international and government level as well as in the general public
  • to strengthen the epilepsy movement by uniting epilepsy associations in a worldwide campaign
  • to raise visibility on epilepsy and encourage discussion about epilepsy
  • to provide epilepsy associations with a significant fundraising opportunity.

WHO Key facts

  • Epilepsy is a chronic noncommunicable disease of the brain that affects people of all ages.
  • Around 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological diseases globally.
  • Nearly 80% of people with epilepsy live in low- and middle-income countries.
  • It is estimated that up to 70% of people living with epilepsy could live seizure-free if properly diagnosed and treated.
  • The risk of premature death in people with epilepsy is up to three times higher than for the general population.
  • Three quarters of people with epilepsy living in low-income countries do not get the treatment they need.
  • In many parts of the world, people with epilepsy and their families suffer from stigma and discrimination.
