About Move for Your Brain

The holistic approach to brain health requires the implementation of integrated policies that address the key risk and protective factors as well as the determinants of brain health including physical health and physical activity. The goal of the Move for Your Brain campaign is to promote and emphasise the importance of policies and practices addressing brain health from a holistic perspective.

On the occasion of the 2024 Brain Awareness Week, the European Brain Foundation and the European Brain Council have decided to shine a light on the benefits of physical exercise on the brain by reactivating its #Move for Your Brain campaign. Physical activity and healthy lifestyles have a clear and demonstrated impact on brain health. Whether you’re running, walking, or jogging, let’s lace up our shoes, hit the pavement, and boost our brain health together!

Share your runs, walks, or jogs with us using #Move4YrBrain or by joining our Strava group. We encourage each and every one of you to start – or keep – exercising and share your pictures on social media with the hashtag #Move4YrBrain, or our website. Tee shirts can be made available upon request.
