The World Stroke Organization is the only global body solely focused on stroke. With around 3 500 individual and 100 society members spanning every global region, we represent over 55 000 stroke specialists in clinical, research and community settings. The WSO vision of “A life free of stroke” captures the organization’s aspiration and motivation in relation to prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, long-term care and support, and acts as a marker point for its work with others who share our purpose. WSO is supported in this goal by a set of strategic objectives that span education, good practice and research, capacity building and awareness and advocacy.
