World Asthma Day (WAD) (May 7, 2024) 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.

Asthma affects 2.8 million Australians, World Asthma Day focusses on learning about what can cause asthma flare-ups, what the signs are, and how to treat it can give people with asthma more control over their health and help them live better lives.
