How can I host a World Polio Day awareness event?

To host a World Polio Day awareness event, start by defining your purpose and audience. Decide if you want to educate, fundraise, or mobilize volunteers, and identify who you want to reach—students, health workers, or the community. Choose your format such as a seminar, health camp, webinar, street rally, or art competition, and plan it around 24 October. Partner with local health departments, Rotary clubs, hospitals, and NGOs for resources and expertise. Prepare engaging content like expert talks, survivor stories, posters, and videos. Promote the event through social media, local media, and posters. Encourage interactive activities like quizzes or pledge walls to engage participants. After the event, collect feedback, share photos, and track impact. This approach ensures awareness, participation, and long-term engagement.
