Global Initiative for Asthma
World Asthma Day is organized by the Global Initiative for Asthma, (GINA) (www.ginasthma.org), a World Health Organization collaborative organization founded in 1993. WAD is held each May to raise awareness of Asthma worldwide.
Although asthma cannot be cured, it is possible to manage asthma to reduce and prevent asthma attacks, also called episodes or exacerbations.
GINA has chosen "Closing Gaps in Asthma Care" as the theme for the 2022 World Asthma Day with a list of suggested activities.
