Members' Advocacy

The World Heart Federation's member organizations are contributing to global advocacy efforts by meeting with regional partners, forming country and regional alliances and increasing awareness of the risk factors associated with Cardiovascular Disease. 

From workshops to letter writing campaigns, our members are working together and presenting a unified voice, collectively raising awareness at the local, national, regional and international levels.
