World COPD Day 2025: Because Breathing is Imperative to Life
What is World COPD Day?
Organised by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), World COPD Day is observed every year, on the third Wednesday of November (20th-Nov-2025). It is a global healthcare event that aims to increase awareness about COPD, including its impact on people’s lives, importance of early detection, and prevention, and management of this life-altering disorder. The initiative receives participation from healthcare professionals, policymakers, and organisations from around the world, who come together to educate people about COPD and respiratory health, encourage healthy lifestyle choices, and facilitate quality care for those living with this condition.
