The lack of a dedicated patient organization for stroke survivors in Switzerland has led to a public event being held on this topic.

Other countries have successfully established such organizations and it is important to take up this topic to discuss the possibility of creating a similar institution in Switzerland.

The aim of this event is to highlight the importance of patient organizations for stroke survivors, provide insights into the process of establishing such an organization, and lead a discussion on why there is no such organization in Switzerland and what steps are needed to change this.
