World MS Day 2022
World MS Day is officially observed on 30th of May. World MS Day is the MS movement’s annual campaign to raise awareness of the condition, and to support and connect the 2.8 million people living with it worldwide. It is a day to celebrate global solidarity and hope for the future. The first World MS Day was initiated by MSIF in 2009 to express solidarity to start a Global MS movement.
The theme for World MS Day 2022 is ‘#msconnections’.
The MS Connections campaign is all about building community connection, self-connection and connections to quality care. It is an opportunity to advocate for better services, celebrate support networks and champion self-care.
Let’s Connect!

When policies for MS are made – are you counted?
Do you benefit from them?
Do you get to know the latest information to treat MS?
With no comprehensive national data on MS, many get left behind in accessing schemes or resources designed for them. Therefore, the Multiple Sclerosis Society of India has launched this initiative. The India MS Map aims to crowd-source mapping of the prevalence of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in India.
Our endeavour is to ensure that no one gets left behind!
