Upcoming Parkinson’s Events
World Parkinson Congress 2023 | Barcelona, Spain
Unlike other scientific congresses, the World Parkinson Congress brings together all members of the Parkinson’s community. As an inclusive event, the WPC was founded on the belief that getting world leaders out of their professional silos and forcing a cross pollination of the scientific, clinical, rehabilitation, and advocacy communities would expedite the discovery of a cure and cultivate best treatment practices for this devastating disease.

AktivZeit aims to raise awareness on Parkinson's Disease in the German speaking public and to show that behind each statistical number stands one person and his/her individual story. 500,000 people in Germany, Austria and Switzerland are currently affected by Parkinson's Disease.
We are asking the public to collect the same amount of minutes spent exercicing as there are poeple with Parkinson's Disease in these countries. In case we manage to exceed our goal, we will add other countries to the count.
Finally, we would like to motivate people with PD to share their stories with us. We are Schluss mit Parkinson, the German speaking sector of PD Avengers.
